[FieldTrip] Fwd: ft_megplanar problem for planar gradient calculation

Hi,

I might be mistaken since I am not using a neuromag system, but as far 
as I know a Neuromag system already has planar gradiometers? If so, then 
there would be no need to apply ft_megplanar (and actually, it would be 
an meaningless operation)

Best,
Jörn
