External Email - Use Caution        

Hi Freesurfers,

I'm attempting to create equal-distant surface layers between the ?h.pial and 
?h.white surface segmentation using the MATLAB functions read_surf and 
write_surf. I used read_surf to get the vertex coordinates and face information 
out of the ?h.pial and ?h.white and saved the modified vertex coordinates for 
the new surface into "?h.new_surface.pial" using write_surf. After loading the 
new surface files into freeview the command line shows the following warning 
message:

Did not find any volume info

The surface however was showing correctly on freeview. Furthermore, when I'm 
attempting to calculate the surface orientation angles of the newly generated 
surface using mris_convert --angle, I got the following error indicating the 
same thing about missing volume info:

************************************* CAUTION 
**************************************
If you are running "mris_convert --angle" on an original surface (i.e. has not
been transformed by mris_surf2surf), then you can ignore this message.
However, if you need to calculate orientation angles of a TRANSFOMRED surface 
you
will need to convert the .lta/.dat registration file first and force the 
original
volume as the source. Otherwise important header information will be lost and 
the
angles will be incorrect (do not be fooled, they might appear close, but they 
won't
be exact). A detailed description and example can be found on the freesurfer 
wiki.
************************************************************************************
error: volume size must be greater than 0 in every dimension

I see similar problems have been reported previously but I was not able to 
locate the solution of such matter. Does anyone know what is the cause of this 
and how to trouble shoot? Thanks in advance!
