Hi,

I made a label for the rest of the brain. In the colour table, I put 0 0 0 and 0 for opacity. This may make the desired annotation transparent, but the rest of the original brain is still grey. Is there a way to not view the original brain surface? Or to change the colour?

Thanks,
Allie

Hi Doug,

I used --help. I loaded the annotation but the other regions were still all present. This makes me think that I need to have ALL areas of the brain included in the colour table, with values of 0 for the colours, or values of 100 for opacity. I'll give this a shot.

Thanks,
Allie

The idea is that you copy it into one location (no need to make multiple copies), then modify it to match what you want. You'll need  to change the names at least. Try running it with --help to get more info. And, yes, you can make your own label!

Hi Again,

I made a label on my own instead of using annotation2label. First, is this even allowed?

Now I am trying to use label2annot. I'm not sure how to specify the colour table. I typed in: "--ctab FreeSurferColourLUT.txt but it can't find the file. I found it in the freesurfer home file, and copied it into my subject directory, and into the individual subject's file. Should I put it somewhere else? Is that even the correct file?

Thanks!
Allie
