Terry,

John just left for a week's holiday, so he won't be able to address this problem for a while.

A month or so ago, I had somewhat analogous problems with very slow responsiveness during a few Caret operations (but not 5 minutes!). John thought it was related to the Qt upgrade and managed to resolve the problem somehow, but I'm not sure what he did.

I hope this isn't too bad to put up with in the interim and that it isn't a widespread problem.

Hi John,

The computer is indeed a very cheap (but relatively new) one. It has 736 MB of Ram and uses an AMD Sempron processor (1.66 GHz). I tried installing it in an older (ancient) HP computer with 256 MB of Ram and a 550 MHz Celeron processor. The effect was pretty much identical - it froze the computer up for about 5 minutes, but then worked fine. I guess I will just get used to
it - the new features on the 5.33 version are worth it.

Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry,

I have seen the slow to load the Display Control behavior on a very
low-end computer with only 256MB of RAM.  Which processor and how
much memory is in your computer?

Hi David,

I tried the method you suggested, using Caret 5.3 with the
Human.sphere_6.LEFT_HEM.73730.topo file, but all I could get on the
very
inflated surface was a few red dots along a line at z=0.  I then
tried the
new 5.33 Beta (Windows) version, which I had recently downloaded,
and it
worked fine after I managed to get the paint file up.  This was not
easy,
because as soon as I hit the Display Control button, the whole
screen froze
for about two minutes, then came back to life.  Do you think this a
problem
with the configuration on my computer?  Thanks.

Terry

Hi,

Is there a way I can draw a border on the fiducial 3-D surface? I'm
trying
to map the perirhinal cortex and it jumps a cut as it extends toward temporopolar cortex, so when I draw the boundary on the flat map the
resulting area looks fine, but on the fiducial surface there is a
large
gap
between the polar and posterior parts.  In the Caret 5.2 tutorial
it says
it
can be done, but is difficult.

Terry,

In Caret 5.3 you can draw 3-D borders on non-flat surfaces, using the
Dimensions: 3D option in the Draw Borders dialog box.  Instead of
using the fiducial surface, a highly inflated surface works better
(see below - and is easy to generate if you don't have one already).
Make sure that the topology assigned to the surface you are drawing
on is CLOSED (not CUT).

If you are drawing a closed border and want to paint in the enclosed region using the 'assign paint identifiers within the closed border', double-check that you haven't nadvertently assigned nodes on the far (invisible) side of the surface. This doesn't happen when you use a
highly inflated surface, as its center of gravity is at the origin
and the 'negative screen-Z' nodes are excluded. If you have problems
on this front, consult with us again.
