Dear Freesurfers,

I am using mri_label2label in Fs v5.0.0 to map a label between subjects. I have 
some problems in that the target label shows little holes while the location of 
the target label seems to correspond rather well with the source label. 
Checking these holes backward to the source subject using the function 
tools/send to subject in tksurfer ... brings the saved point in the source 
label.

I think this problem has been reported in the list before (see copy below) but 
unfortunately I do not find a solution that removes the holes. In my case I see 
this now and then both for ROIs that I drew myself in tksurfer but also 
pre-defined ROIs that were already there (e.g., 
rh.G_and_S_cingul-Mid-Ant.label). What might go wrong here? I am using 
--regmethod surface and trgsurf white. 

I wondered further how one may check how well mri_label2label worked for each 
subject. Is there a way to test that source and target labels have the same 
location in terms of for example gyri and sulci? Are there cases that 
mri_label2label cannot work?

Thank you very much for your help, any suggestions appreciated!

what does the original label look like? Can you convert one of the 
predefined labels (eg, lh.V1.label) to see if the same thing happens?
