Hi John,

I would assume it is the pruning for the "Venant condition", i.e., that 
all dipole positions are close to a vertex
whose neighbors are all in grey matter, because they get the monopolar 
weights that approximate best
the given dipolar moment. Check e.g. this one

@Johannes: Did you implement the "ft_inside_headmodel.m" and do you agree?

We are now investigating a new FEM source model, the "localized 
subtraction approach"
https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sci.utah.edu/*wolters/PaperWolters/2022/HoeltershinkenEtAl_Biosignale2022.pdf__;fg!!HJOPV4FYYWzcc1jazlU!4DOkcvTkP8Z9h_Yzt9uN57aiBPGOzIlZdiq7PXavgWu2nBGVh0tRGmOObbdzcvD0VPSgLcWYRDApReSO059VXIwT8NHMCMHvhmzaGw$ 
where this "pruning" might be alliviated or not be needed at all, as 
long as the source is in GM.

Best regards
