Hi,
In FreeSurfer 4.3.0, the Matlab routine ?freesurfer_read_surf.m? crashes, when run with one output argument:
function [vertices, faces] = freesurfer_read_surf(fname)
The function help says:
% Note that reading the faces of a quad file can take a long
% time due to their compact storage format. In this case, the return of
% vertices can be faster if the face output variable is not specified; in
% this case, the faces are not read.
However, when the function is called in the form
vertices = freesurfer_read_surf(fname),
it crashes on line
152 faces = faces + 1;
because the variable ?faces? is not defined.
A quick fix: wrap line 152 inside an if clause:
If nargin>1
faces=faces+1;
end
Unfortunately I don?t know, how to check, whether this has been fixed in later releases.
Cheers,
Matti
