Denoising error after patch
Hello,
I have a project utilizing fmriprep preprocessed data with Conn
25b. At the denoising window I have received errors akin to the
earlier threads about patching the conn.m file. As such, I saved my
project, closed Conn, and updated the file. Upon attempted to use
the denoising tab again, I still received errors along with
warnings.

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
Index exceeds the number of array elements. Index must not exceed 1.
Error in conn (line 7641)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error in conn_menumanager (line 125)
feval(CONN_MM.MENU{n0}.callback{n1}{1},CONN_MM.MENU{n0}.callback{n1}{2:end});
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Additionally, I also attempted to use the "compute scrubbing" function at setup with the fmriprep dvars and framewise displacement in order as a suggested fix for this as well. The only way I was able to do that process without errors was by listing the names of the dvars and framewise covariates separated by a comma in the options. However, the resulting scrubbing covariate appears as just a straight line, and the 2nd level covariates do not appear accurate (QC_ValidScans, QC_ProportionValidScans, QC_MeanMotion, QC_MeanGSchange lists as zero/NaN for all particpants, QC_InvalidScans lists all the scans for every participant). When I attempted to use only framewise displacement for the scrubbing calculation, I received the following error:
