Loads a GIFTI (.surf.gii) surface into a
SurfaceGeometry. The usual public entry point for
reading a surface from disk is read_surf_geometry /
read_surf; this function is the GIFTI-specific loader it
dispatches to. For convenience it also accepts a file path directly, in
which case the header is read internally.
Usage
loadGIFTISurface(meta_info)
Arguments
- meta_info
either a GIFTISurfaceGeometryMetaInfo instance, or a
length-one character path to a .surf.gii / .gii file.
Value
a class of type SurfaceGeometry
Details
requires rgl library
Examples
# \donttest{
# Either pass a path directly ...
# geom <- loadGIFTISurface("lh.midthickness.surf.gii")
# ... or go through the meta-info object:
# meta <- read_meta_info(neurosurf:::GIFTI_SURFACE_DSET, "lh.midthickness.surf.gii")
# geom <- loadGIFTISurface(meta)
# }
