[Eeglablist] EEGLAB2022 study precomputed files directory and parameters

[Agatha Lenartowicz]

Hi. I am struggling with the precomputed file creation in studies in EEGLAB 2022. I understand that the goal here is to precompute once. But there are issues I’m running into.

For a variety of reasons, I will have multiple studies for the same dataset. I do NOT wish to create a single study for this dataset, this is not an option for our work. To do so I am setting the ‘filepath’ variable in std_makedesign.m to my desired directory for a given study (it is correctly set in the STUDY.design.filepath. This variable however is being ignored during the precomputation and the precomputed files are being written in the data file directory (default).

Question 1. How do I control where the files are being written for different studies? 

A further issue is that even for the the same study, different designs, I am getting warnings that the files will be overwritten for the current STUDY.

Question 2. How do I verify that the files that get written are respecting different parameters for different designs within a study - where is this recorded?

Thanks
Agatha
