[Eeglablist] Topographical plots for frequency band

[Makoto Miyakoshi]

Dear Rohit,

frequencies from 8-12Hz ?

Unfortunately I don't think GUI supports it unless you read so in the help.

a specific time point".

Band-pass filter, Hilbert transform, and use pop_spectopo() function.

made by spectopo should give this information about a specific time
interval of data - say 1 second/ 10 seconds etc. I don't think it can be
for a particular time point.

Yes.

You can't cheat the time-frequency trade off.

appropriate for shorter time segments ?

I would use the abovementioned method using Hilbert transform since it
gives you instantaneous amplitude.
