Hi Jean-Francois, If "A" and "B" are molecule models and/or molecular surfaces, yes. However, there is currently a bug that VRML models (such as generated by Nucleotides, PipesAndPlanks) are included in the pov file and resulting POV-Ray image even when they are not shown in Chimera. To work around this problem, I recommend first saving a session with all your models, then closing the models you don't want in your pov file and image, then saving the pov file. I'll submit a bug report. Thanks for pointing out this problem, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi Elaine, I understand what you are talking about and it is great that you fixed it but my question is not related to saving images but '.pov' files. If a chimera session has 2 objects A and B, can you unshow A and save a '.pov' sesion file containing only info from B ? Jean-Francois
