mesh.atlas.context.layer: Compute the context layer of a mesh atlas visualization.

In fsbrain: Managing and Visualizing Brain Surface Data

Compute the context layer of a mesh atlas visualization.

Description

Compute the optional context mesh (typically a semi-transparent cortex) that is rendered together with the data meshes of a mesh atlas.

Usage

mesh.atlas.context.layer(subjects_dir, subject_id, cortex)

Arguments

subjects_dir	string, the subjects dir to use for the context mesh.
subject_id	string, the subject id to use for the context mesh.
cortex	the context definition. Either a character string (the name of the surface mesh to use, e.g., 'white'), a named list of options for the context mesh (supported entries are 'surface', 'color', 'alpha', 'style', 'subjects_dir' and 'subject_id'), an fs.coloredmesh instance, or a hemilist of such instances (which is then used as-is).

Value

a named list with entries 'lh' and 'rh', the context coloredmeshes.
