External Email - Use Caution
Hi Ruopeng,
Thanks so much for getting back to me, that worked! However after saving the patch as lh.full.patch.3d and running the line mris_flatten -w 10 lh.full.patch.3d lh.full.flat.patch.3d i got the error attached in the image. Do you have any idea why that's happening?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Kind regards, Ornaith

Hi Ornaith,
Regarding your freeview question - you need to move the current cursor (the 3d red cross hair) to a valid surface vertex. Supposedly you can do that using shift + Ctrl + left button in Cut/Path edit mode. But I just found out there is a glitch on macOS that prevent it from working. A workaround is to uncheck the Cut button, which will quit Cut mode and return to normal viewing mode, then just use left mouse button to move the 3D cursor to the vertex you want, then check Cut button again and finish filling uncut area. I’ll fix this issue asap. May also drop the shift + ctrl requirement to make the whole process more intuitive.
Best, Ruopeng

External Email - Use CautionHello Freesurfer developers,
I am new to Freesurfer and I'm hoping that someone can help me; I'm attempting to get a flattened patch of an entire hemisphere. Below is a page outlining how to use mris_flatten to achieve this:
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferOccipitalFlattenedPatch
I am just trying to achieve this with the tutorial data to start with.
- First problem is that when I run the command 'tksurferfv bert
lh inflated'; I am getting the error outlined in Image 1.
- I realised that I could create a patch using freeview instead of
tksurfer. However I attempted to follow the instructions on the page above to do this and ran into some problems. Image 2 shows an example of the patch that I created and image 3 shows the error that I get when I attempt to press the Press Fill Uncut Area button (I tried this many times and got the same result).
- However one time I did succeed in making a patch (I don't know what I
did differently this time?) - see image 4 attached. I saved it as lh.full.patch.3d. When I tried to run the command mris_flatten : mris_flatten -w 10 lh.full.patch.3d lh.full.flat.patch.3d
I got the output: Ornaiths-MacBook-Air-3:surf ornaithoreilly$ mris_flatten -w 10 lh.full.patch.3d lh.full.flat.patch.3d using write iterations = 10 reading new surface format patch lh.full.patch.3d with 125717 vertices (94.1% of total) reading original vertex positions... minimizing metric distortion induced by projection...

The version of Freesurfer and the platform that I'm using is outlined below:
- FreeSurfer version: freesurfer-darwin-macOS-7.1.1-20200811-8b40551
- Platform: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G7024)
If anyone could shed some light on any of these errors or suggest an alternative method it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Kind Regards
