[FieldTrip] Combine multiple blocks

[Gaur, Pramod]

Dear Team,

I have a quick concern, I have a cognitive task and recorded three blocks. Is there any way in which I can combine all the three blocks before the preprocessing. I have alternate to preprocess the blocks separately and then combining them. In this case, I lose the data_MEG_filt                   .grad.chanpos location.

cfg = [];
    cfg.dataset = filename;
    % % cfg = ft_definetrial(cfg);
    cfg.trialdef.eventtype = 'STI101';
    %cfg.trialdef.eventtype = 'gui';
    cfg.trialdef.eventvalue = [16 17 18 32 33 34]% 17 18];% put your own
    cfg.trialdef.prestim        = prestim;
    cfg.trialdef.poststim       = poststim;
    %     cfg.length                  = 1;
    cfg                         = ft_definetrial(cfg);

    % read in the data from the magnetometer
    % cfg.channel = {'MEGMAG','STI101'};
    cfg.channel                 = {'MEG'};%,'-MEG2331','-MEG0122'};%%{'MEG*2','MEG*3'};%selected_sensors;%{'MEG'};%
    % cfg.lpfilter                = 'yes';
    % cfg.lpfreq                  = 40;
    % cfg.hpfilter                = 'yes';
    % cfg.hpfreq                  = 1;
    cfg.continuous              = 'yes';
    cfg.detrend                 = 'no';
    cfg.demean                  = 'yes';
    cfg.dftfilter               = 'yes';
    % cfg.dftfreq                 =[50 100 150];% power line noise
    cfg.bpfreq        = [1 48];
    cfg.metric                  = 'zvalue';
    cfg.layout                  = 'neuromag306all.lay';
    cfg.baselinewindow = [-0.5 0];
    data_MEG_filt                   = ft_preprocessing(cfg);

    if isempty(data_MEG_filt)
    data_MEG_filt=data;
    grad = data.grad;
    else
    cfg = [];
    data_MEG_filt = ft_appenddata(cfg, data_MEG_filt,data);
    end


Any advice will be highly appreciated.
