Hi Elaine,

Thanks for your response. Yes, I met error when saving the scenes and timeline of animation. The errors have been submitted. I also enclosed the error here in case.

Again thanks for the great work!

Best,

Leon

Hi Leon,
The scenes and timeline should be saved in the session.

If you are getting some kind of error message when you try to save a session, please use the button on the error dialog to report the bug (or use the Chimera menu: Help... Report a Bug). Please attach the session file if one was written, and include a short description of the problem and your email address if you would like to be updated about the bug status.
Thanks,
Elaine
