Re: Chimera Scripting Query

Hi Ali, You might be able to make a non-GUI script using MatchMaker's match() function. However, the Match→Align functionality is completely intertwined with its GUI and there is no way to access it in a non-GUI fashion. ChimeraX does a much better job of separating functionality so that it is available both to scripting and the GUI, but Match→Align hasn't been implemented in ChimeraX (yet). --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab > On Dec 19, 2025, at 9:52 AM, Ali, Asif <maa32(a)illinois.edu> wrote: > > Hi Eric, > > I wanted to script running MatchMaker and MatchAlign on pdb structures in a directory and extract RMSD headers without having to use the GUI application? > > Thank you for your time. > > > Best Regards, > > Mr. Asif Ali (He/Him/His) > PhD Student, Bioinformatics: Crop Sciences > University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign > Researcher @ GCA Lab | NSRC > Teaching Assistant | HORT 105 > ✉ maa32(a)illinois.edu <mailto:maa32@illinois.edu> linkedin.com/in/asif1/ <http://linkedin.com/in/asif1/> > > <http://illinois.edu/> > Under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act any written communication to or from university employees regarding university business is a public record and may be subject to public disclosure.

chimera display window issue
by Rechiche, Othman 09 Dec '25

09 Dec '25

Hi Chimera team, I’d like to bring to your attention an issue I’m encountering with the model display window (see attached images). As shown, the window appears incomplete. This problem started only after upgrading to the new macOS Tahoe—I did not experience it on macOS Sequoia. I’m currently using chimera-alpha-mac64.dmg (MD5: 555a52a5b12e1a617013213bf0f66c8d), the latest daily build. Could someone please take a look and advise on a possible solution? I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

Dear ChimeraX Support Team, I am writing to ask about the release of *ChimeraX version 1.11*, which is expected today. Is it already available for download? Since I need to use the software today, would you recommend waiting for the new release or downloading the previous version for now? Thank you, Laura Oliveira Gomes
