Hi Audrey-Anne,

Erin and I tried to do that, but you can't see the menu picks very clearly in 
the video:

But here are the steps:

Download conte69 atlas:

http://sumsdb.wustl.edu/sums/archivelist.do?archive_id=8293720&archive_name=Conte69_atlas_v2.LR.164k_fs_LR.c5.zip

Unpack and cd to the Conte69_164k_fs_LR.c5 directory.

Launch caret5.

Cancel when spec file dialog comes up.

Attributes: Map volume to surface

Data mapping type: Metric; Next

Add volumes from disk; select volume in MNI space; next

Map to spec file with atlas
        Note: If you don't see this, then your caret installation is incomplete
or confused about its parent directory.  Launch from command line.

Output spec file: select Conte69_atlas-v2.L.164k_fs_LR.c5.spec
Space: FNIRT
Atlas: Conte69 Map LEFT midthickness...

Next

Accept default metric filename

Mapping Algorithm:  Enclosing and interpolated are the most popular

Next

Close when Summary appears

File: Open Spec File: Conte69_atlas-v2.L.164k_fs_LR.c5.spec

Load scenes

Double-click first scene (Conte69 midthickness and inflated...)

Toolbar: Spec: Metric: map_data_0_Conte69...
        Erase all existing columns

Toolbar: D/C: Page Selection: Overlay/underlay Surface
        Primary overlay
                Data type metric metric

You should see it.

Donna
