Parameters

Parameter

type

if type is zero or negative, the variable type is set to
'event'.

Comments


Neuron and event types are almost identical. The main difference is that when a data file is opened
by NeuroExplorer, all the neuron variables in this file are selected for analysis.


You may need to use this function when creating new neuron variables using

NewEvent

. NewEvent

creates an event variable and the variable type can later be changed to 'neuron' using

SetNeuronType.

Usage

NexScript

doc = GetActiveDocument()

doc.neuron1 = NewEvent(doc, 0)

SetNeuronType(doc, doc.neuron1, 1)
