Subject: sliding semi-landmarks question

Dear all,
In his paper on the extended eigenshape method, MacLeod (1999)
describes a procedure whereby outlines are traced so that homologous
points across specimens are identified as landmarks, and equal numbers
of semi-landmarks are allocated between them. How would I do this in
practice using sliding semi-landmarks? Would I have to first identify
the landmarks as such in tpsDig, and then draw separate lines between
them using consistent numbers of points that I would later identify as
sliding semi-landmarks in tpsUtil? Or is there a better, more
streamlined way of doing this? Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any
answers in the mailing list archives.
Thanks,
Jordan
