Hello,

I used @auto_tlrc to convert my datasets to MNI space, and then I got this warning message:

*+ WARNING: Changing the space of an ORIG view dataset may cause confusion!
*+ WARNING:  NIFTI copies will be interpreted as TLRC view (not TLRC space).
*+ WARNING:  Consider changing the view of the dataset to TLRC view also

I'm a bit embarassed to say that I don't understand this, but - what is the difference between space and view?
If I view my output with AFNI's GUI - what does it mean if it is in MNI space but in ORIG view, for example?

In my particular case, the conversion was done on AFNI files (not NIFTI), so I suppose I can safely ignore this warning message, but I was still wondering regarding the difference between space and view.

Thank you (and my apologies if this is too basic, I couldn't find an online explanation),

Galit
