Hello,

I am trying to change some default settings in TkMedit by specifying my own .tcl file (using the -tcl flag when I call tkmedit), and I'm finding that some of the changes work and some do not. Here is my tcl:

SetBrushShape 10 0 1
SetTool 2
SetDisplayConfig 2 2 0

I got those settings from surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/TkMeditGuide/TkMeditReference/TkMeditScripting. I saved that in a file called tkmedit_defaults.tcl, and when I open TkMedit I call tkmedit <subject> T1.mgz -tcl $FREESURFER_HOME/tktools/tkmedit_defaults.tcl . When TkMedit opens, the tool has been set to Edit Voxels like I hoped, and the brush has been set to Circle with a radius 10 like I hoped. But it's not set to 3d (which I thought the "1" in SetBrushShape 10 0 1 would do), nor is it set to a 2x2 display from SetDisplayConfig.

Does anyone have any guesses what might be causing those commands not to work? The version of freesurfer I'm using is freesurfer-x86_65-redhat-linux-gnu-stable5-20110522, which I believe is more or less the newest version.

Thank you,
Steve Politzer-Ahles
