We originally used AlignTrials to make sure that all trials had the same number of frames and that the target onset occurred in the same frame in each trial. We normalized trial lengths by adding dummy frames.
But we never look at the whole trial. We almost always look at a fixed window of time obtained with TimeSlice. AdjustTimes + TimeSlice (with numeric times) achieves the desired effect of normalizing trial lengths and aligning the target-onset frames.
