When Average-MED-Wall B1-12 column is selected, then only the nodes 
inside the medial wall will have a paint name associated with them.  All 
other nodes will have paint name "?????", which in this context means 
"not inside the medial wall".

The Modalities paint column should have a real paint name for almost 
every node.

I think I know what is confusing you, though:  When you click on a node 
with the composite paint file loaded, you get a BUNCH of output like this:

    Paint: LOBE.PARIETAL GYRUS ??? ???????? ??? Brodmann.4 ??? ??? 
COGNITIVE COGNITIVE minus_cluster_area_424.611_nodes_569 ??? ??? ??? 
GYRUS ???



The paint name associated with the currently selected paint column is 
printed in BOLD, while the paint names associated with all other columns 
are not in bold.  They are printed in the same sequence as the columns 
are listed in the D/C paint selection menu (or the Overlay/Underlay - 
Surface paint dropdown menu).  You will get some ??? output for almost 
every node, since many of the parcellation schemes apply to a restricted 
area (e.g., visuotopic or frontal).  All nodes outside those areas will 
get ???? for that column.
