plotAtlas: visualize an atlas defined by createAtlas

Description

visualize an atlas defined by createAtlas

Usage

plotAtlas(atlas, pt.size=NULL, alpha=1, render=c("w", "s"), point=c("s", "p"),
          meshcol="white", add=TRUE, legend=TRUE)

Arguments

atlas

object of class atlas created by createAtlas.

pt.size

size of plotted points/spheres. If point="s". pt.size defines the radius of the spheres. If point="p" it sets the variable size used in point3d.

alpha

value between 0 and 1. Sets transparency of mesh 1=opaque 0= fully transparent.

render

if render="w", a wireframe will be drawn, if render="s", the mesh will be shaded.

point

how to render landmarks. "s"=spheres, "p"=points.

meshcol

color to render the atlas mesh

add

logical: if TRUE, a new rgl window is opened.

legend

logical: request plot of legend specifying landmark coloring.

Value

• returns invisible vector containing rgl.id of rendered objects.
