 Yes Kevin, im still a dum dum sometimes, as your comment I 
Looked it in shell window, and saw all was not well.

In response to Load-Overlay-> load lh.thickness from the subject surf/
Directory get errors

% surfer: needs at least 2 marked vertices
% surfer: needs at least 2 marked vertices
% surfer: needs at least 2 marked vertices
% mri_read(): couldn't determine type of file
/home/gkirk/freesurfer-new/freesurfer/subjects/sickle_cell/THORNTONH/sur
f/lh.thickness
surfer: couldn't load
/home/gkirk/freesurfer-new/freesurfer/subjects/sickle_cell/THORNTONH/sur
f/lh.thickness
sclv_read_from_volume: error in MRIreadInfo.

The overlays that are loaded in the buckner are .mgz files and it does
not seem happy with these

Doug Greve is the winner in our best suggestion category with 

Another method is to use mri_surf2surf to to convert the curv file into
an mgh file (run it with --help to see how to use it). Then just load
the mgh file as an overlay (with "compute identity").

Which when applied with- and the output is-

[EMAIL PROTECTED] surf]$ mri_surf2surf --hemi lh --srcsubject MASONO
--srcsurfval thickness --src_type curv --trgsubject MASONO --trgsurfval
lh.thickness.mgz --trg_type mgz srcsubject = MASONO
srcval     = thickness
srctype    = curv
trgsubject = MASONO
trgval     = lh.thickness.mgz
trgtype    = mgz
surfreg    = sphere.reg
hemi       = lh
frame      = 0
fwhm-in    = 0
fwhm-out   = 0
Reading source surface reg

h.thickness

Reshaping 2 (nvertices = 107662)


Gives .mgz files that surfer is happy to use as an overlay, and produces
what looks like good Thickness maps.


Thanks all

Greg.

There are a couple things that could be wrong. Make sure that
calculating an identity registration is the proper thing to be doing
here. Doug can probably tell you more about this. Next, is the file
actually loading? Make sure that the output to the shell doesn't have
any errors, and that there's a new line in the label/value area with the
overlay's name on it. Make sure that there are actually values in that
line as you move the mouse aroudn over the surface. If there are, do
View->Configure->Overlay and see if you can set the threshold so that it
encompasses the values, as the default threshold might be incorrect.
