Hello Chimera developer,
I am rendering a PDB file colored according to B-factor value by "render by attribute" tool. How can I generate a color scale bar besides the structure labeling the color scale used?
Hi Yao, There's no way to do this directly in Chimera now, though I am working on a tool that will make it easy to produce such a key -- but it's not ready yet. For now you will have to use an external image- processing program such as GIMP or photoshop to add the key. There is some basic advice for doing this in this message: http:// www.cgl.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimera-users/2006-July/000878.html --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu
