Dear Experts,

I am running the last part of step 7 for the fixel analysis and I am running into an error with the -crop flag. It does not appear to be a valid flag, however, the directions on the utilize it to threshold the .msf file. Is there a new option to threshold the file at 0.2? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is the -fmls\_peak\_value flag the same thing?

Thanks,

James

Hi James,  
The `-crop` option is part of the `fixelthreshold` command. I’m guessing there must be an issue inside your script?  
Cheers,  
Dave

Thanks Dave. I definitely just misread the script. I appreciate the help.
