load a surface from a surface geometry file with optional mapped surface data
read_surf(surface_name, surface_data_name = NULL, colind = NULL, nodeind = NULL)
| surface_name | the name of the file containing the surface geometry. |
|---|---|
| surface_data_name | the name of the file containing the values to be mapped to the surface (optional). |
| colind | the columns/samples to load (optional), only if |
| nodeind | the subset of node indices to load |
