Hi Dr. Schoffelen, Thanks for your reply. I downloaded the fieldtrip package you listed and I can now open all kinds of cifti files.
The initial package I installed is from this page: https://github.com/Washington-University/cifti-matlab and I was linked from here: https://wiki.humanconnectome.org/display/PublicData/HCP+Users+FAQ#HCPUsersFAQ-2.HowdoyougetCIFTIfilesintoMATLAB Also just to mention that both yours and Timothy's email never got into my mailbox. I wouldn't have seen them if I did not read the HCP digest. Thanks, Cherry On Sun, Mar 8, 2015 at 12:38 AM, Yizhou Ma <maxxx...@umn.edu> wrote: > Indeed.
