This example shows how to use source space morphing (as opposed to SourceEstimate morphing) to create data that can be compared between subjects.
.. warning:: Source space morphing will likely lead to source spaces that are less evenly sampled than source spaces created for individual subjects. Use with caution and check effects on localization before use.
