Re: [chimera-dev] Save density map as a mesh

Hi Amichai, Chimera computes density map isosurfaces using the marching cubes algorithm. It can be saved in various file formats for example OBJ, others are described with the export command https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/export.html <https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/export.html> Tom

Hi Chimera support,

I have 2 questions:

1. How does Chimera calculate the mesh from the density map?

2. How can I save the mesh as a file?

Thanks a lot, Amichai Holzer Huji _______________________________________________ Chimera-dev mailing list Chimera-dev@cgl.ucsf.edu http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/listinfo/chimera-dev
