Hi Simone

You can do this all in freeview. If you give it -ss <fname.tif> it will save a snapshot to that file and exit. Check out the help. There is something like –view lateral or medial that you can use. I think everything you have below has a command line switch, but if you can’t find one post again and we’ll sort it out

Cheers

Bruce

Subject: [Freesurfer] Taking screenshots on different views with tksurfer

        External Email - Use Caution        

Dear all,

I have a lot of different surface analyses to display. For each test that I performed, I have to take a screenshot of the left and right medial surfaces and left and right lateral surfaces (4 screenshots for each analysis). Since there's a lot of screenshots to take and I'd like to test different thresholds, I'd like to do it from the command line without using GUIs.

At the moment I'm using

tksurfer mni152.fnirt lh inflated -ov *********.nii.gz -fminmax 5 8 -truncphaseflag 1 -snap *************.tif

But this only helps me with lateral views. Is there any way to automatically take a snap of the medial view?

Thanks

Simone
