Hi Nick, Thank you very much. I have two followup questions. Since Scenario B is permissible, I believe the following two scenarios should also be allowed. (Just wanted to confirm this:)
Scenario C (for white matter edits): 1. recon-all -s <subject> -autorecon1 -autorecon2 2. edit wm.mgz ( http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/WhiteMatterEdits) 3. recon-all -s <subject> -autorecon2-wm -autorecon3 Scenario D (for pial edits): 1. recon-all -s <subject> -autorecon1 -autorecon2 2. edit brainmask.mgz ( http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/PialEdits) 3. recon-all -s <subject> -autorecon2-pial Basically, I am trying to see if I can avoid running -autorecon3 in the first run; make all the edits and then re-run recon-all with appropriate flags.
