Hi Markus

for example, this is what is in the one we use:

 mris_info $FREESURFER_HOME/average/lh.destrieux.simple.2009-07-29.gcs
reading color table from GCSA file....
average std = 3.9 0.2   using min determinant for regularization = 0.000
0 singular and 1066 ill-conditioned covariance matrices regularized
GCSA file /cluster/p41/fischl/dev/freesurfer/average/lh.destrieux.simple.2009-07-29.gcs opened
  0  Unknown                           0   0   0    0
  1  G_and_S_frontomargin             23 220  60    0
  2  G_and_S_occipital_inf            23  60 180    0
  3  G_and_S_paracentral              63 100  60    0
  4  G_and_S_subcentral               63  20 220    0
  5  G_and_S_transv_frontopol         13   0 250    0
  6  G_and_S_cingul-Ant               26  60   0    0
  7  G_and_S_cingul-Mid-Ant           26  60  75    0
  8  G_and_S_cingul-Mid-Post          26  60 150    0
.
.
.


it translates between an index (e.g. 1), a human readable name (G_and_S_frontomargin) and an rgb value for displaying on the surface (23 220 60). You would have the indices in your volume, then this color table would translate it into values to display on the surface.

Make sense?

Dear Bruce or someone else,
would you mind answering a little more in detail, please? I am stuck. There is 
hardly any thread about the command
mris_sample_parc, but I need this function.

1) This file called "cma_parcellation_colors.txt", is an option for 
mris_sample_parc. Where does that file come from? How am I
supposed to create it?

2) What is missing if the loading of the created annotation file onto a surface 
(in freeview) gives the following error,
repeating for infinity
CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
No such file or directory
CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
No such file or directory
CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
No such file or directory
CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
No such file or directory

What does this error mean, at all?

Thank you and please excuse my insisting!
Markus

      Thank you Bruce,
I read that mris_sample_parc "samples a volumetric parcellation onto a 
surface". 
I understand that this is like creating from a file of the type of aseg a 
corresponding file of the type of
aparc.annot.ctab. 

Is this not true? Do I actually  have to create the aparc.annot.ctab type file 
manually and give this as the above
mentionned file to the command? The file is only an optional arguement though?

Thanks again, Markus

      Hi Markus

      you need to create that file (or update FreeSurferColorLUT.txt) to 
reflect whatever you have in
      /Documents/myROIfile.mgz

      cheers
      Bruce

      Dear Bruce,
      Thank you for your answer. I have not yet gotten it correctly.

      1) Where does that file come from? Should I create it? how?

      2) what is missing in the command of mris_sample_parc? Why does it now
      work? 

      3) what does the second error mean?
      CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
      No such file or directory
      CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
      No such file or directory
      CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL

      Thanks in advance!

      Hi Markus

      that file translates indices/annotations into colors to display
      and human reasable names.

      cheers

            I can precise the question, actually there are
            three:

            1) ist the command correct?

                  mris_sample_parc -v -sdir subject001 rh
                  ~/Documents/myROIfile.mgz rh.myROIfile.annot


            2) I do not understand the meaning of this claimed
            file
            cma_parcellation_colors.txt

            Actually this does not exist. In the Wiki
            (http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/mris_sample_parc)
            it says that
            there was an optional arguement

            -file <filename>

            use <filename> as translation (default:
            'cma_parcellation_colors.txt')


            If I understand correctly, "translation" points ot a
            problem of different
            spaces, but the filename rather seems something like
            a parcellation/atlas
            color table?

            3) The result of this problem seems to be that I
            cannot annotate the surface
            using the created annotation file. It gives this
            error, which i do not
            understand.



            CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
            No such file or directory
            CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
            No such file or directory
            CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
            No such file or directory
            CTABfindAnnotation: ct was NULL
            No such file or directory
            ... etc.

            Can anyone help me find the problem?


            Thank you in advance!
