Many creators of NIFTI files don't respect the qform and sform codes for the "space" the image is in. So, we get things like atlas / template images marked as original subject view. Even if they do, once used by lots of utilities, said codes get stripped at times. AFNI tends to get upset by this and won't let you view underlay and overlay images of differing spaces / views.

Is there a way to force AFNI to say "yes, I know it thinks it's an orig, but no it's not" and just show X atop Y, throwing caution to the wind? That is, to remove the view checks? Yes, I have scripts to modify the nifti headers, but some times you just want to be allowed to do what the code thinks might be stupid.
