[FieldTrip] Source localization

[jan-mathijs schoffelen]

Hi Casper,

Looks like a lowlevel error to me.
The function complains about the dim not having the number of elements it expects (should be 3). Thus it looks as if the input to the plotting function (thus the output to ft_sourceinterpolate) is unexpected.

Best,
Jan-Mathijs

While the source analysis is not an essential component of the analysis of this dataset (it's more along the lines of "let's see if I can do this"), and I don't expect any result other than something like "there might be a source in the left hemisphere", I'd still would like to found out why it's not working.
