Hi Thomas, The command "vop add" merges maps. (There is a similar "vop subtract" command too.) If the maps are not on the same grid, this resamples as needed. It lets you specify a subregion (which planes to use) from the reference map. <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/vop.html#add> I hope this is what you had in mind, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi, I was wondering, whether a 3D map can be placed into a box with a user defined number or x/y/z planes ? Ideally, I would like to place several 3D maps into boxes of the same dimensions and would like then to merge all maps into one 3D map file. Is this possible ? Tx for your fast answer, Best, -Thomas
