Hi Elaine, Here's a bit of background: this map is the result of a mapping using H2O as probe done by PLI [1]. I would like to adjust the contour levels to look like the red contour levels in Panel B in the attached figure (figure 4 from [1]). How can I achieve this, or is this not possible in Chimera? Thanks Markus [1] Verdonk et al., J. Med. Chem 2016, 59, 6891--6902; DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.6b00716 [cid:image001.png@01D3EC48.52B943B0]

Hi Markus,
The behavior you describe is like entering some value that is higher than what is
in your map, so there is no contour surface any more. Then when you move the
slider, it resets to the maximum value found. Not sure why you expect higher
levels, but maybe whatever program that wrote the file didn’t write bigger values,
or didn’t write the format correctly.
I hope this helps,
Elaine

Hi all,
I have an issue displaying a map file that I opened using the insightgrid.py
script.
When displaying the grid at the highest level I can get, the levels are still too
low, but when I set the levels higher by typing something into the level field (e.g.
1.2e+03 instead of the 1e+03), the levels disappear altogether as shown in the
second screenshot. As soon as I adjust the slider, the levels reset to 1e+03.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Markus
