str The file name, which should end with -fwd.fif or -fwd.fif.gz.
- include
list, optional List of names of channels to include. If empty all channels are included.
- exclude

- verbosebool,
str,int, orNone If not None, override default verbose level (see

Notes
Forward solutions, which are derived from an original forward solution with free orientation, are always stored on disk as forward solution with free orientation in X/Y/Z RAS coordinates. To apply any transformation to the forward operator (surface orientation, fixed orientation) please apply
convert_forward_solution()after reading the forward solution withread_forward_solution().Forward solutions, which are derived from an original forward solution with fixed orientation, are stored on disk as forward solution with fixed surface-based orientations. Please note that the transformation to surface-based, fixed orientation cannot be reverted after loading the forward solution with
read_forward_solution().
