Save Point

Saves the current cursor so that tksurfer or tkmedit can use its Goto Saved Point function to go to that point.

Goto Saved Point

Sets the cursor to the one last saved in tksurfer or tkmedit for this subject.

Run Script...

Executes a tcl script.

Cut Line

Calculates a line between marked vertices and cuts the vertices in that line.

Cut Closed Line

Same as above, but closes the line between the first and last marked vertex.

Cut Plane

Requires exactly four vertices to be marked. Cuts the surface but not in the plane defined by the four vertices.

Cut Area

Requires one marked vertex and two incontiguous surface areas. Cuts the area that the marked vertex is not in.

Clear Cuts

Removes all cut vertex, restoring the surface to whole.

Send to Subject...

Same as Save Point, but allows you to enter a subject name explicitly.

Write Decimation...

Not functional, reserved for future upgrade.

Write Dipoles...

Writes a file containing the dipole values at each vertex.

Set Background Midpoint to Average

In the curvature colorscale, sets the point at which red transitions to green to the mean curvature across the whole surface, making the data more interpretable.

Fill Stats

Marks vertices based on the overlay values surrounding the cursor.

Fill Curvature

Marks the region around each selected vertex that has a similar curvature to that of the selected curvature. Used for labeling anatomical regions.

Smooth...

Iteratively smooths scalar for a user-selected number of iterations. Equivalent to convolving with a surface-based gaussian.

Inflate....

Applies the inflation force for a user-specified number of iterations, to smooth the surface.

Swap Surface Fields...

Intended for use by those who know the internal data structure of the surface. Opens a dialog box allowing you to specify two surface vertex fields to swap.

Clear Curvature

Sets the curvature value at each vertex to 0.

Graph Marked Vertices Avg

Graphs the average of marked vertices in the time course.

Graph Label Avg

Graphs the average of a label in the time course.

Save Graph to Postscript File

Saves the contents of the time course graph to a Postscript file.

Save RGB As...

Saves the contents of the Display window to an RGB file.
