the problem is that the average surface has less surface area than any
individual. We keep track of this in the surface file itself (try mris_info
on it), then correct for it when we need to.

Does this workaround account for the error in the raw area unavoidable
on an average surface? If not, are you aware of it and is it important
for your analysis?

yeah, I guess we disabled it since the surface area isn't representative
of individual subjects. We could either change it to a warning with a
-force flag or something, or you could run mri_annotation2label and run
label_area on the individual labels.
Do you really want the surface area on the

I did as you suggested, but got a different error telling me that

You can try the following "hack": convert the annotation to a series of
labels, and t

I am running v 4.2.0. Would I be able to run stats on fsaverage using a new
freesurfer version, or is there some other way around this?

Hi Alex,
if all you care about is surface area you can probably just copy the
wm.mgz from any subject into the fsaverage/mri dir. Other stats will of
course then be incorrect. You also have to be careful as the fsaverage
surfaces contain less surface area (due to averaging) than individual

Hi,
I'm playing around with different ways of generating custom annotation files
using the fsaverage surface, and would like to estimate the surface area of
each ROI. I tried running mris_anatomical stats, but it seems to required
wm.mgz, which is not contained in the fsaverage directories (please
