saving electrode 10-20 names in the GUI recording file

Hello everyone,
I have searched the forum and the documentation, but could not see how one can input and save the electrode locations using the standard names, instead of numbers, in the .txt output of recordings? Besides going in to the file after it is created and editing it, is there a way to input and store this metadata?
Best,
Idil

Idil, hi.
This is not currently a feature of the GUI.

This type of metadata storage, IS a feature of EDF / BDF recording formats. GUI can output in BDF, and you could see if EDFBrowser could adjust the EDF / BDF Header.

As you can see here, the header has space for the EEG 10-20 position:
"
ns * 16 ascii ns * label (e.g. EEG FpzCz or Body temp)"https://www.teuniz.net/edfbrowser/edf format description.html
