Overlay and Map Settings
Overlay and Map Settings sets display options for layer data selected in the Overlay Toolbox Layers tab.

To open these settings, click the button for a selected layer.

- The box contains tabs with options for different types of Layers data: Labels, Layer (volume layer settings), Metadata, Palette, Parcels, Trajectory. Tabs will be active (not grayed-out), depending on the data in the File selected for that layer.

- The Do Not Replace option at the bottom of the box allows more than one Settings box to be open at a time. Otherwise, if settings for another layer is selected the contents of the box will switch to options for that most recently selected layer.

- Labels contains an Edit button used for modifying the color and name of labels in a *.label or *.dlabel file. Edits are applied within the session when the Apply or OK buttons are clicked. The edits are not written to the label file until saved in Save/Manage Files.

- Layer contains voxel drawing settings for files containing volume data. The 3D options to draw voxels as cubes or rounded cubes are only active in All view. These options should only be used for files with a limited number of voxels to draw (*.dscalar files that contain only subcortical voxels, low resolution volumes, or highly thresholded higher resolution volumes) because wb_view attempts to draw all voxels in the volume, causing the program to hang when large numbers of voxels are drawn.

- Metadata will allow creation/editing of map metadata for each layer file. This option is not active currently.

- Palette (see image) contains settings for adjusting the type and range of the data color palette, setting thresholds on displayed data, and shows a histogram/basic statistics on the data distribution.

> - Thresholds set by the sliders or entered values in the toggle box are shown by the shading in the histogram and can be applied inside or outside the set values.

> - Palette spectrum is set for the Full range of the map data, a Percent range of the full data, or a Fixed range of the full data values. Positive, zero, or negative values may be toggled on/off for display with the checkboxes.

> - Mouse controls for zooming and panning are active in the histogram chart field.

> - Data Options allow a palette setting to be applied to all maps in a data file and/or to multiple data files.

- Parcels sets the mode and color for which an identified parcel is indicated on the surface. Color Mode: Outline indicates the selected parcel's boundary with a highlight color, Fill shows the entire selected parcel with the highlight color, and Off turns off the parcel indication altogether.

- Trajectory sets Attributes, Display Mode, and Data Mapping for display of tractography trajectory files. This tab is currently inactive pending the release of tractography data.
