Dear Chao-Gan,
Use spm_mesh_render instead:
spm_mesh_render('Left1.gii')
otherwise, with gifti/plot, you need to do this:
plot(gifti('lh.white.gii'),gifti('Left1.gii'));
I will update gifti/plot to match spm_mesh_render's behaviour but have a
look at the contextual menu with spm_mesh_render as it gives you a lot
more functionalities.
Concerning a MATLAB-based viewer for GIfTI files, there is MRIcroS from
the prolific Chris Rorden:
https://www.nitrc.org/projects/mricros/
otherwise if there is a viewer you like but does not support GIfTI, we
should be able to find a way to export the data in a suitable format.
Best regards,
Guillaume.
