[FieldTrip] ft_channelrepair only for certain trials: repaired data only contain those certain trials

[Eelke Spaak]

Hi Vitoria,

Yes, that is the expected behaviour of ft_channelrepair, because that
is consistent with all other functions supporting a cfg.trials-option
(i.e. select first, then do the work on what remains).

It should be quite straightforward to do something like:

cfg = [];
cfg.trials = goodtrials;
dat1 = ft_selectdata(cfg, data);

cfg = [];
...
cfg.trials = badtrials;
dat2 = ft_channelrepair(cfg, data);

datcmb = ft_appenddata([], dat1, dat2);

to achieve what you want.

Groetjes,
Eelke
