modelSaveMatchObjBtwnTrials #105

Closed jonasoa closed 2 years ago

jonasoa commented 2 years ago

Hello, I'm having an issue when I try to save my results from the cross-session cell alignment. When I try using modelSaveMatchObjBtwnTrials a gui pops up for me to select a folder to save my data. After having selected a folder then this pops up Capture

The issue is that when I try to look through the folder that I selected to save my data then the file is not there. How can I save the data, and how can I access the file?

Hi,

You can alternatively access the cross-session alignment data via the Matlab command line through the ciatah class property globalIDStruct, e.g. obj.globalIDStruct. Within this structure are fieldnames named after each animal used for cross-session alignment, e.g. obj.globalIDStruct.m77. See https://bahanonu.github.io/ciatah/pipeline_detailed_cross_session/#output-of-computematchobjbtwntrials.

Also, what is the current directory (e.g. pwd on command line) of MATLAB when you ran modelSaveMatchObjBtwnTrials? It is possible that the file was saved in a private sub-directory of a non-CIAtah folder if the current directory was different. If you do an Everything (voidtools.com) or similar search for 20220620_154905.mat does the MAT-file come up as saved in your workstation?

I'll put out an update today to ensure that obj.dataSavePath always saves to CIAtah private sub-directory rather than use a relative path. Let me know if you have any other questions in the meantime.

Update pushed so that by default modelSaveMatchObjBtwnTrials will save to private folder within CIAtah directory (e.g. check by running ciapkg.getDir() in command window.
