that's a good way to do it. You don't even need to save it as an mgz. You
can just do tools->labels->copy label stats to overlay, then delete the
label and you have an overlay from it (assuming the label->stat field is
not zero)

Thanks for both of you for the helps! I also find a 3rd solution: convert
one of the labels to mgh and thus use it as overlay and use the other one as
label in freeview.
Doug: Creating an outlined label sounds pretty cool. I wonder whether either
erosion or dilution would do the trick … some sort of tricky conjunction.
Bruce: thanks!!

       the other thing you could do is draw a path in tksurfer and have
       it be
the "outline", then load the inner label and display it as filled

       Doug,
Thanks for your reply! In the annotation, can one of the
label be just
outlined and the other filled?
I would really appreciate if you could provide a
step-by-step example
for this one… esp. how to create the colorLUT in this
case...
Best,
Daniel

     I'm not sure about freeview, but you cannot do it in
tksurfer. You
     can
     take your two labels and create an annotation with
     mris_label2annot (you
     get to specify the color)

         Dear FreeSurfer experts,
         Is it possible to display two labels in tksurfer
or freeview,
         where
         one label is outlined with a certain color and
the other label is
         filled with a different color?
         I want to show two labels, one is within the
other one.
         If yes, could you please tell me the specific
steps..?
         thanks a lot!
