Hi Arthur, Not sure what you mean by “snipped”, but I would recommend using Chimera’s menu: “File… Save Image” or command “copy” rather than some screenshot or screen grab method on your computer. Then, things to try are: (1) decreasing the supersampling level. Default is 3x3. You could try 2x2 and if that didn’t help, 1x1 (no supersampling). This is most likely the problem. <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/print.html#sstip> (2) using a different file format, say PNG instead of JPEG. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

I recently used the distance feature to determine the distance between two alpha carbons in a protein. The view on the image showed a dashed line and the distance in Angstroms. I had managed to change the color of the line and numbers to a dark green, and thicker line.
So I then snipped the image and put it in power point.
Figure below:
As you can see the line and numbers are there.
Now look at the Jpeg file that is attached.
The dashed line does not show up. No big deal but perhaps there is a setting that I missed when I saved the image.
Thank you.
