Dear Chimera users! I am using headless version of Chimera inside of my Bash script to prepare images of the pdbs. Normally I provide a pdb file with a script in loop to obrain images automatically Here are some of my questions related to the visualisation: 1) I have a problem with the "preset apply publication 1" notably Chimera is crushed when I use #set silhouette option Is it possible to make "a black border of a selected thickness" for all of the elements of secondary structure of my proteins via some another command? Actually in terms of the cartoon's style (but not a colour) I would like to obtain something like was shown here https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/ribstyles-contras... 2) I am using "rangecolor bfactor 2 blue 30 red 50 yellow" option to colour the structure according to the B-factor information provided in the given PDB. The problem is when I provide "key" option for it to place a colour diagram on the resulted picture I ontain a crush in headless version. Do some other methods exist for the placement of the colour legend for the B-factor colouring which could be used in the headless version? Thank you for help in avance! James
