Hi Prit, I can select the split surface pieces of an MSMS surface with ctrl-click using Chimera 1.12. Does ctrl-click work to select atoms, or the original unsplit surface? If not then it is probably a graphics driver problem, since some graphics capabilities are needed to know what object is under the mouse. Another possible graphics driver problem is the green outline is not shown — but if you select something the magnifying glass icon in the lower right corner of the main Chimera window (select inspector) should turn green.

Hi,
I am trying to visualize some specific inner cavities in a structure. I can display the MSMS surface and split it into pieces (accelerator Sc), but then I need to select the extra surfaces to hide/delete them (starting with the main outer surface). For some reason surface picking with mouse (Ctrl + left click) doesn’t work. I checked the surface attributes and ‘selectable with mouse’ was true.
I recall that this used to work some years ago, but not anymore. I am using the latest daily build (v1.13 build 41684) on macOS v10.12.6. Is this a bug or have some settings changed? I couldn’t find anything referring to this in the docs.
