Aaron and Bruce,

Looks like tkmedit saves edit.dat in the directory from which it is invoked, but tksurfer tries to load edit.dat from the tmp/edit.dat in the subject dir.

A simple workaround is to setenv a variable called FS_SAVE_GOTO_POINT to a filename where you want both tkmedit and tksurfer to read/save the points. Like,

setenv FS_SAVE_GOTO_POINT <subject_dir>/tmp/point.dat

This should work.

Anyway, tkmedit should try and save the point to the standard ( documented ) location <subject_dir>/tmp/edit.dat and if it can't it should save it to the ./edit.dat... will try and fix this.

Best,
Krish

the points are stored in the subject's tmp/edit.dat dir. Does that file exist? Is there any error in either of the terminal windows?

Although new to Freesurfer, I have in the past been able to save points on tkmedit and bring them up on an inflated tksurfer image. However, now this is not happening. When I click on Save Point or go to Tools>Save Point in tkmedit, no coordinates are brought up in the tkmedit Terminal window. So, when I try to bring up points on tksurfer (goto saved point) no points are
shown.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Aaron
