Hello,
I just downloaded the new Chimera version and tried to combine different models (density maps) into one volume, using the new 'combine' function, (e.g. combine #1 #2), but it returned an error message.
Is it only possible to combine atomic structures (such as PDB files), or is there a way to combine volumes/density?
Yes, "combine" can only combine molecular models. I'm not even sure how you would combine maps unless 2 out of 3 of their dimensions were the same and they were precisely aligned along the remaining axis.
Thanks a lot! Martin
P.S.: Thank you so much for developing Chimera! I enjoy working with this program a lot!
We're happy you like it! Except for "combine" of course. ;-) --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu
