Hi Sourena,
I'm not sure it's worth it, since it lives in the same space as our standard template you can just use it. The alternative would be to manually annotate the subjcets that go into your study-specific template, which takes forever and significant training. An alternative would be to rebuild the atlas from your subjects and ther aparcs I guess, but I doubt that would change much (unless you edited them).
cheers Bruce

P.S. I realized the mistake I made in the purpose of --no-cortex flag, being smoothing issues. So, is there a way to transfer freesurfer's standard annotations to study-specific custom templates?  Cheers, Sourena On Sat, Aug 18, 2012 at 8:15 PM, Sourena Soheilinezhad sourena.soheili@gmail.com wrote: Hi Bruce Thanks. The problem is solved. Pardon my last question: After creating a study specific template, I try to map every thickness map into the template using surf2surf and also zero the medial wall with "--no-cortex". Does it mean that the native surface is firstly transformed to the standard fsaverage to extract the cortex and medial wall annotations, and then mapped to the study specific template? Is it ok, or there exists a better approach?
