Thank you so much Volkmar, this was indeed the problem, and I can display all images now. Although I had removed all references to SPM5 from the Matlab path, before the error occurred, I had not closed and reopened the Matlab session itself, so I guess there was still an 'SPM5 trace' left ... best, Dirk %%-----Original Message----- %%From: Volkmar Glauche [mailto:[log in to unmask]] %%Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 3:51 AM %%To: Dirk den Ouden %%Cc: [log in to unmask] %%Subject: Re: [SPM] Display error %% %%Hi Dirk, %% %%as already pointed out in private communication to Dorothee, %%my suspicion is that you may have been mixing SPM5 and SPM8 %%in one MATLAB session or both SPM5 and SPM8 are on your %%MATLAB path at the same time. %%The easiest way to avoid this is to make sure that at any %%time there is only one SPM version used in a MATLAB session. %% %%Volkmar %% %% %%Am Dienstag, den 11.11.2008, 17:37 -0600 schrieb Dirk den Ouden: %%> Dear all, %%> %%> I have just installed SPM8b, with the latest updates %%(r2452), running %%> on Matlab version 7.2.0.232 (R2006a).
