Hi Michelle,
the odd shaped shards and triangles usually means you recreated the surfaces after flattening, so the flattening needs to be redone. The swirls can be a number of things, possibly incorrect cuts. If you want to upload an example I'll take a look.
cheers Bruce

Dear freesurfers, I've been analyzing my retinotopy , have finally been able to run fieldsign-sess without running into dimension mismatch errors.
Everything seemed ok until I tried looking at the fieldsign maps on flat patches. Some patches are warped with odd out of plane swirls. In others, all i get are odd shaped shards and triangles.
What might be the cause?
thanks, Michelle
