supplying the stimulus information for raster_plot.py

[liangmingli]

Hi Johannes, I was trying to correctly configure the raster_options variable in options.py for raster plots. It looks like I should supply a dataframe with the following columns:
stim_num
stim_name
filename
paradigm
daytime

But I am not sure where in the combinato workflow I should supply this information. Should I import the dataframe from a csv file? If possible, would you mind providing a template csv so I could borrow from you. Thank you in advance for your help!!

I figure out a way to use the rasterplot function, and the details are below

1. in options.py, set 'RunGuiWithRaster' = True
2. in options.py, set raster_options= {'frame_name':'raster_test.csv','meta_prefix':'stimuli_images'}
3. in raster_figure.py, edit get_stim_info() and get_onset_times() change get_values to to_numpy()
4. in sorter.py edit line 143 image_path = meta_prefix
5. in sorted.py, edit line 140 frame = pd.read_csv(raster_options['frame_name'])

Then, in your data folder, supply the following .csv file with the following columns

stim_num, stim_name, filename, paradigm, time

note that paradigm can be only from two categories: either nscr, or scr. NSCR means you dont want to print your stimuli picture on the raster plots, and SCR means you want to.

Hi @liangmingli , I'm sorry that I didn't get to this in time. Is your solution working for you now? Any other help needed?
