Dear Gabor, I don't know of a single step to create separate maps for all the separate segmentation regions, but below is how to do it for one region at a time. You can use the "mask" command to extract the data within some surface, such as from segmentation. For example, if the original volume data is model #0 and you selected (Ctrl-click in graphics window) the segmentation surface of interest, the command could be something like: mask #0 sel ... which would create a new volume model. The mask command has several options, such as for inverting what you get or extracting a slab around the surface, see: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/mask.html> There is also a "segment" command with "exportmask" option to create a map in which the values are the identifiers of the segmentation regions: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/segment.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Dear chimera team, I've found the map segmentation tool very useful. However I would like to split the map according to the segments. Is it possible to do that? Thanks in advance! Best regards, Gabor
