1. A method, comprising:

  • implementing a trolling routine to troll a modulation field, using an arrangement of electrodes on at least one lead, through positions within a volume of a targeted tissue including a plurality of neural tissue positions;

    performing a marking procedure multiple times during the trolling routine as the modulation field is trolled through the plurality of neural tissue positions, the marking procedure being performed when the modulation field is at each of the plurality of neural tissue positions, the marking procedure to identify when the modulation field provides patient-perceived modulation, the marking procedure including;

    receiving a marking signal that indicates that a modulation intensity of the modulation field achieved the patient-perceived stimulation; and

    storing modulation field parameter data that affects the modulation intensity of the modulation field in response to receiving the marking signal.
