Hi all,
I’ve noticed that the intensity/color of silhouettes does not vary with depth cueing the way everything else does - normally this is fine, except when one is showing a slab of a structure - fragments of secondary structural elements which would otherwise blend
into the background tend to become overly emphasized by the presence of silhouettes. The obvious solution to this for now is to turn off silhouettes when making these kinds of figures, but I quite like the effect that silhouettes provide, so I would rather
not do so if there is an alternative. Perhaps in Chimera 2 it may be worth considering applying a depth dependent factor to the silhouette color (so it fades into the background color as it approaches the yon clipping plane)?
Cheers,
Oliver.
