Hi Bruce,

I followed the tutorial at
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/WhiteMatterEdits.

But I couldn't find similar examples as mine in the tutorial.
I don't really understand why don't the yellow and green surfaces follow the
boundary of wm.mgz, especially the boundary is well defined in the slices.
