Hi AFNI gurus,

I've got a set of surfaces that were generated in BrainVoyager and exported to
GifTi format. I have LH & RH pial, smoothwm, and inflations. I have used quickspec
to create a spec file so they can all be read in and associated with one another.
But, I'm getting some strange behavior:

1) When I read in the pial surfaces only, using the -i_gii switch, they look fine. However,
when they are loaded as part of the spec file, the curvature information just looks like
white noise. This only happens for the pial surfaces, not the others.

2) Also, when I load all surfaces using the spec file, I can only view the Anatomical
surfaces (pial and smoothwm) together. That is, using the '[' or ']' keys to turn off either
the LH or RH doesn't do anything, and the following notice pops up:

Notice SUMA_bracketright_Key (SUMA_input.c:274 @12:38:49):
Hiding right side
Further notices for '[' or ']' key will be in the shell

Below is the spec file I'm using. Any thoughts on what might be causing this behavior
are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam
