[Chimera-users] pipes and planks

Dear Chimera Users: I have been trying to makes pipes and planks in different colors for a co-crystal structure. I want each protein to be a certain color. The user manual says that I need to select "No colors" in the pipes and planks menu. However, this button is deactivated in my program. Has anyone else had that problem and is there a fix? I have tried using axes/planes command but it does not give me loops and sheets that I also need. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
