identify points in excel

[Gfernandezv]

Hi, thanks for the good software.
I'd like to know if there is a way to identify the points for make a correlate with the excel file.

Thanks.

There are plans to support it, but this feature not available at the moment.
Do you need to tell electrode paths apart (just a guess from your support request, I'm the same guy who mailed you earlier today)? @Majpuc did that in the past, but I don't remember what her approach was, perhaps she will throw in some details here.
As electrodes are straight lines, it's possible to tell them apart in a mathematical way, perhaps via applying RANSAC repeatedly. But first let's see if Maja has a simpler approach.

Dear Gfernandezv,
Thank you for your question. We understand that keeping track of your markers in LocaliZoom could be challenging when having several electrodes. The way I did this analysis was to color code my electrodes and place the markers systematically always in the same order. In the Excel sheet I would annotate the markers with the corresponding color and then copy over the list of markers corresponding to the same electrode to a notepad document that I can paste directly in MeshView for visualisation.

I did this manually but I guess this can easily be done with some clever python script :)
I hope this information was useful.
