Hi Rob,

I can't debug this without more info. In general, we need enough info to recreate the problem. This means your cmd line (which you gave), the directory you ran it from, your SUBJECTS_DIR, permission to view the data. Please see surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/BugReporting for  more info on what we need.

Hello,

I have been unable to load one subject's surface, for purposes of viewing a functional mask on the surface.  I noticed this warning in the text output: "surfer: WARNING: fov was ~0, setting to 0.256".  The warning, and subsequent failure to load the surface, occurred when I called surf-sess using the same parameters I had used successfully to load all other subjects' mask data.  The surface did not load, and instead a red rectangle and a blue rectangle were rendered.  The warning I mentioned was the only suspicious line in the text output from surf-sess.  The other output (including the "can't find tal...") was present for the subjects where the command was successful, not just for this subject.

Here is the command I used (accessing a list of subjects, one of which was the one that did not load):
surf-sess -sf Subject_Lists/bw-group-error-5 -analysis EMerror -contrast dACC_rh_pos_0_ASce68 -map mask -hemi rh -fthresh .5

Here is the context of the warning:

can't find talairach file '/space/ventzl/1/users/SUBJECTS_DIR/mano011/mri/T1/COR-.info/../transforms/talairach.xfm'
surfer: Reading header info from /space/ventzl/1/users/SUBJECTS_DIR/mano011/mri/T1/COR-.info

Do you know what might cause a problem like this?  Thanks in advance for any help or advice,

Rob
