Hi Pedro,

Have a look at this article: http://brainder.org/2011/07/05/freesurfer-brains-in-arbitrary-colours
I think this is the same you'd like to do (or you can change some steps easily).
Hope it helps!

All the best,

Anderson

Doug,

I did

mri_annotation2label --subject bert --hemi lh --outdir $SUBJECTS_DIR/bert/label
mri_annotation2label --subject bert --hemi rh --outdir $SUBJECTS_DIR/bert/label

And then

mris_label2annot --s bert --hemi lh --ctab $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt --l lh.bankssts.label --l lh.caudalmiddlefrontal.label --l lh.entorhinal.label --l lh.paracentral.label --l lh.parstriangularis.label --l lh.postcentral.label --l lh.superiorfrontal.label --l lh.frontalpole.label --l lh.temporalpole.label --a myannot

and

mris_label2annot --s bert --hemi rh --ctab $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt --l rh.bankssts.label --l rh.isthmuscingulate.label --l rh.medialorbitofrontal.label --l rh.parstriangularis.label --l rh.rostralanteriorcingulate.label --l rh.superiorparietal.label --l rh.frontalpole.label --a myannot

If this is the right procedure I guess I'll have to modify the existing annot in matlab because all the surface is being labelled as Unknown.

Thanks

PPJ

You can also break up the annot into labels ( mri_annotation2label) then
recombine them with a new color table with mris_label2annot.
