# 13.2

`ciftiTools` now has a couple functions which make working with parcellations easier. (A parcellation is a single-column dlabel CIFTI or `"xifti"` object. Each label level, or "Key", represents a "parcel." Each location belongs to exactly one parcel. Parcels are usually contiguous regions--but not necessarily. `ciftiTools` includes a few of the most commonly-used parcellations. These can be loaded with `load_parc`. Any other parcellation CIFTI file can be read in with `read_cifti`.)
* `apply_parc`: Apply a parcellation `"xifti"` to a data `"xifti"`. Can be used to compute the mean of each column, e.g. for FC calculation, but also supports applying any other function parcel-wise.
* `parc_vals_to_xifti`: Create a `"xifti"` from a parcellation and a numeric matrix of values corresponding to each parcel.

Other new functions:
* `remap_cifti`: an extension of resampling. Beware, we might revamp this function in the future.
* `surf_area`: computes the surface area attributable to each vertex or face of a `"surf"` object.

Changes to existing functions:
* `convert_xifti`, `convert_to_dlabel`: arguments related to levels & labels have been renamed to match `factor` more closely.
* `separate_cifti` and `write_xifti2`: now require users to provide either the `write_dir` argument, or file names for each desired output file. This gives users more flexibility to control which files are written. 
* `view_xifti` qualitative color legend: add black outline.
* `view_xifti`, `view_volume`: print out indices of the selected subcortical slices.
* `unmask_subcortex`: now expects `xifti` input. If necessary, use the internal function `ciftiTools:::unvec_vol` to unmask a numeric matrix directly.

Bug fixes:
* `view_xifti`: fix bug where legend image was still written if `legend_fname=NULL`.

13.1 also includes misc. documentation and warning improvements.

    * Add `...` for additional arguments
* Add `view_surface` for `"surface"` objects
* Add `summary` and `plot` methods for `"surface"` objects

* Out-of-mask values (medial wall for cortex and non-subcortical voxels for subcortex)
 are no longer inferred from the data values when making a `"xifti"` from GIFTI and NIFTI files. Previously, if a mask was not provided then constant `0`, `NA`, or `NaN` values were deemed out-of-mask. Now, `ciftiTools` uses ROI files to keep track of the out-of-mask values in `read_cifti_separate` and `resample_cifti`, and requires the masks to be explicitly provided in `as.xifti`
* Rename `make_surface` as `make_surf`
* Rename `is.surface` as `is.surf`
* Rename `side` argument as `hemisphere` argument (same choices: `"left"` or `"right"`)
* Fixed the alias functions, e.g. `readCIfTI` and `readcii` for `read_cifti`

## Demo files

* The demo files from NITRC are now included with `ciftiTools`: https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/8541/cifti-2_test_data-1.2.zip

## Vignette!

It will be located here: https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/mandymejia/ciftiTools/blob/master/vignettes/ciftiTools_vignette.html once we push to master. Until then, replace "master" with "1.4"

# 1.3 (August 24, 2020)

* introduce `"xifti"` object: can be made from CIFTI file, GIFTI surfaces, or new data
    * To make a `"xifti"` from data: `as.xifti(...)`
    * To make a `"xifti"` from a CIFTI file: `read_cifti(cifti_fname)`
    * To make a `"xifti"` from a GIFTI surface: `as.xifti(surfL=make_surf(surfL_fname))`
* `read_cifti_flat` now uses XML metadata directly (but still obtains XML via Connectome Workbench)
    * This allows for reading in more metadata such as time start/step for `.dtseries.nii`
* `write_surf_gifti` and `write_metric_gifti` as wrappers to the new `gifti::writegii`
    * Currently depends on `damondpham/gifti` but this will hopefully be merged to main repo soon
* `write_subcort_nifti` to write out subcortical components from `"xifti"` to a NIFTI file
* `write_cifti` can also write the surfaces attached to the `"xifti"`
* `"xifti"` objects can contain surfaces without any data. 
    * `view_xifti_surface` can view a surface without any data: `plot(as.xifti(surfL=left_surf))`
* `resample_surf` to resample a surface object 

# 1.2 (August 7, 2020)

* `read_cifti_flat` and `read_cifti_separate`
* flatten subcortical data in `"cifti"` object. unflattening functions.
* image view mode
* `write_cifti`
* better handling of medial wall
* Subcortical color table added for writing CIFTIs. Taken from: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/AnatomicalROI/FreeSurferColorLUT

# 1.1 (July 24, 2020)

## New names

Most of the functions were renamed. In general, `cifti_[action]` is now `[action]_cifti`. So to open and visualize a CIFTI file, one would use `read_cifti()` followed by `view_cifti()`. To save a resampled version of a CIFTI file, one would use `resample_cifti()`. 

Arguments were also renamed for consistency across functions:

* Arguments referring to file names all end in `_fname` instead of beginning with `fname_`.
* The cortical data, `surf_L` or `cortex_left`, are now `cortexL` (likewise for right).
* The surface geometry data, `gifti_left` or `surf_left`, are now `surfL` (likewise for right).
* The helper sphere for resampling, `sphere_L`, is now `sphereL` (likewise for right).
* `sphere_orig_L` is now `sphereL_original` (likewise for right; likewise for other original files).
* `sphere_target_L` is now `sphereL_target` (likewise for right; likewise for other target files).
* The resampling resolution, `target_res` or `resample`, is now `resamp_res`.
* The Connectome Workbench argument `wb_cmd` is now `wb_path`.
* `outdir` is now `write_dir`.

## New functionality

There are a few new functions:

* `read_cifti_flat()` reads the cortical and surface data together as a single matrix. 
    * It is much faster than `read_cifti()`.
    * It works by using the Connectome Workbench command `-cifti-convert -to-gifti-ext`. 
    * `flatten_cifti()` converts a `"cifti"` object to this same matrix. 
    * `read_cifti()` with `flat==TRUE` will call `read_cifti_flat()`.
* `make_xifti()` creates a `"cifti"` object from its components.
    * Each component can be provided as a file name or R object.
* `view_cifti()` plots the CIFTI data.
    * It calls `view_cifti_surface()` unless no cortical data exists, in which case it will try `view_cifti_volume()`.
    * `view_cifti_surface()` was rewritten using the `rgl` package directly.

And, a few new arguments:

* `sep_keep` and `resamp_keep` indicate whether separated or resampled files should be deleted after reading in the CIFTI data (`read_cifti()`) or writing the resampled CIFTI file (`resample_cifti()`). Their default values are `FALSE`. in which case these files are written to a temporary directory (regardless of `write_dir`). 
* `sep_fnames` and `resamp_fnames` can be used to set the file names for the respective files made by `read_cifti` and `resample_cifti`.
    * The default separated and resampled file names have been updated; see `cifti_component_suffix`.

Other updates:

* Print execution times for each step in `separate_cifti()` and `resample_cifti()` if `verbose==TRUE`.
* Add option to set Connectome Workbench directory for the entire session with `ciftiTools.setOption('wb_path', 'path/to/workbench')`. 
    * Either the folder or executable path can be provided.
* Handling of spaces and parentheses in file names.
* The ROI data can be separated and resampled. However, the `"cifti"` object does not support ROIs, so they are ultimately not loaded. 
    * Please contact the developers if you are interested in this functionality.
    * A workaround would be to separate/resample the ROIs, and then read them in with `make_xifti()` (haven't tested this yet).
* Add option to store a zero-value threshold, `EPS`. Set it with `ciftiTools.setOption("EPS", 1e-8)`. This is used by `view_cifti()` and `flatten_cifti()` to detect constant zero brainordinates.
* Several function aliases, for example `readCIfTI()` and `readcii()` for `read_cifti()`.
* `plot()` method for `"cifti"` objects.

## Removed functionality

* The `overwrite` and `make_helper_files` arguments were removed. All functions will overwrite existing files, and this cannot be changed.
* A `"cifti"` object will only support one surface geometry model at a time.
    * `view_cifti()` can accept a surface GIFTI file directly. 
* The default brainstructures are `left` and `right` only (excludes the subcortical data).

## Notes for developers

* Replaced `oro.nifti::readNIfTI()` with `RNifti::readNifti()` for faster reading of subcortical data.
* Made formal classes for each CIFTI file component: `"cifti_surface"`, `"cifti_subcortical"`, `"cifti_cortex"`, `"cifti_volume"` and `"cifti_label"`.
* Replaced `read_separate_cifti()` with `read_cifti()`, which calls `separate_cifti()`, `resample_cifti_components()` (optionally), and `make_xifti()` in that order. 
* Rewrote `resample_cifti()`. The new version calls `separate_cifti()`, `resample_cifti_components()`, and then uses a template to create the new CIFTI file. (The first half is nearly identical to `read_separate_cifti()`.)
* Moved common argument/parameter descriptions to `rox_args_docs.R`. Use `@inheritParams` to reference these descriptions. This should make maintaining them across the entire package easier.
* Wrapper functions `separate_cifti_wrapper()` and `resample_cifti_wrapper()` to avoid duplicate code across `read_cifti()` and `resample_cifti()`. These should not be used by end-users, so they are not exported.
* Split utility functions into `utils.R` for general functions and `utils_cifti.R` for CIFTI-specific functions.
