Hi Oliver, This seemed like a pretty useful idea and not too hard to do, so I dropped it in. It will be in the next daily build. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Apr 1, 2015, at 3:54 PM, Oliver Clarke <olibclarke@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi,
Currently the mclip command can be used to match a model specific clipping plane to the global near/far clipping planes, or the per model clipping plane of another model.
I think it would be a handy addition to a future chimera version to be able to match the per model clipping plane to an arbitrary plane, pre-defined in axes/planes/centroids - e.g. “mclip #1 match p2” would match the per model clipping plane of model #1 to the plane named “p2”.
This would be useful because it allows one to easily generate a per-model clipping plane that intersects a certain set of atoms, which also facilitates precise description of a figure.
Cheers, Oliver. _______________________________________________ Chimera-users mailing list Chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/listinfo/chimera-users
