Hello everyone,
We are pleased to announce the release of PySurfer http://pysurfer.github.io/ version 0.5.
PySurfer is a Python library for making beautiful and reproducible visualizations of Freesurfer data.
Changes in this version include
- The statistical overlay functions can now use a wider variety of colormaps, with any matplotlib colormap http://matplotlib.org/examples/color/colormaps_reference.html (including the "_r" reversed versions) accepted. - Surface normals are used when rendering the cortex for a smoother visualization. - Changed the default colormap for some functions to more perceptually appropriate options. - Added control over the width of label and annotation borders. - Added 2D grids of images when saving a montage.
Additionally, we have substantially improved the docs with a new example gallery http://pysurfer.github.io/examples/index.html and an updated installation guide http://pysurfer.github.io/install.html describing how to get over some hurdles that can be encountered on OSX.
To install or upgrade, just run:
pip install -U pysurfer
We hope you find it useful. As always, contributions, suggestions, and bug reports are welcome on our github page https://github.com/nipy/PySurfer/.
