Alex, To project foci to the PALS atlas, the foci must be linked to studies with valid stereotaxic spaces. The stereotaxic space determines which of the surfaces inside of the Caret distribution are used to project the focus. Studies are edited using the Attributes Menu->Study Metadata->Edit Studies Dialog. There is some documentation on this dialog at "http://brainmap.wustl.edu/caret/caret_help/dialogs/study_metadata.html ".
Once studies have been entered, return to the Map Stereotaxic Focus Dialog and use the edit mode. Pressing the Study Metadata Button allows one to choose the appropriate study for the focus. After linking the study to the focus press the Apply button and the focus should be properly projected. ----------------------------------- John Harwell j...@brainvis.wustl.edu Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology Washington University School of Medicine 660 S.
