read.fs.surface.ico {freesurferformats}

Read ICO format mesh as surface.

Description

This reads meshes from text files in ICO / TRI mesh format. This format is not to be confused with the the image format used to store tiny icons.

Usage

read.fs.surface.ico(filepath)

Arguments

filepath

string. Full path to the input surface file in ICO or TRI mesh format.

Value

named list. The list has the following named entries: "vertices": nx3 double matrix, where n is the number of vertices. Each row contains the x,y,z coordinates of a single vertex. "faces": nx3 integer matrix. Each row contains the vertex indices of the 3 vertices defining the face. WARNING: The indices are returned starting with index 1 (as used in GNU R). Keep in mind that you need to adjust the index (by substracting 1) to compare with data from other software.

Note

This is a fixed width format.
