Hi Henrique,I can only reproduce this problem if I make the window size rather small, like 600 pixels wide. If I make the window bigger, the extra lines go away. Also, I can only see it on the screen; even keeping the small Chimera window, when I save an image of the same size but with supersampling (which is the default) there are no extra lines on the saved image. So I can only say to try one or more of the following:
(1) don’t screenshot, use save image with supersampling (which initially saves a bigger image and then shrinks it to the final size); try supersampling at least 2x2, could also try 3x3… this is a setting in “Image Options” in the dialog from menu: File… Save Image
(2) try bigger Chimera window
(3) try saving bigger image (larger numbers for “Image width” and “Image height”)
I hope this helps,
Elaine
Here I attached screenshot showing lines and then image about the same size but saved with with 2x2 supersampling.

Dear Henrique,
I don’t know if there is a trick to fix this or not. Could you send us the structure (the atoms you are showing) with explanation of what steps you used to make this plane, or a session file, so we have an example to try with?
Thanks,
Elaine

Dear list, I'd like to create a disk that didn't show lines in the surface depending on the orientation angle (see the image attached). Right now I can clearly see that the circle is formed by several triangles, so I'd like to smooth things up.
I can actually get rid of the triangles by disabling the silhouette of the plane, but I'd like to keep it to show where the plane ends.
Thanks in advance
