Dear MNE developers, I’ve successfully managed to visualize my (fMRI-based) connectivity on a circular graph using connectivity matrix data. I would now like to try visualizing the nodes and edges on a 3D (glass) brain with MNE. Despite going through the manual and forum, I was not able to find any functions capable of doing this without the need for .fif files, which I do not have. I do have the node coordinates, so I was hoping to do this with a slight workaround. Would you be able to point me in the right direction for this, or is this function currently not supported? Thanks in advance, Laurens ---

Hello @Mortelli and welcome to the forum! I wouldn’t know how to do what you’re asking, but I suspect @adam2392 might be able to give you some pointers here, perhaps? Good luck, Richard ---

Currently `mne-connectivity` unfortunately doesn’t have ability to do 3D plotting, so can’t help much 😕 However, if you get something working, we’d love to hear about it.
