You can create a "patch" with something like
label2patch -surf white fsaverage lh lh.V1_exvivo.label ./lh.patch
then load it with
tksurferfv fsaverage lh white -patch ./lh.patch
When you load a patch, you will only be able to see the patch of the surface that you loaded it on
If you want to be able to toggle the whole surface on and off you can add -f fsaverage/surf/lh.white to the command line
It would be nice to be able to do this on-the-fly in freeview... someday

External Email - Use Caution

Hi there

I realize this may be a bit of a stretch, but I wonder if there is any way to turn a surface label into its own 3D object that can then be examined on its own (to observe morphology) in Freeview? Similar to, for example, the sulcal skeletons that can be extracted in BrainVisa?

Many thanks~
