Hi Ana, Do you want to project volume data or a surface? For volume data you can display a projection by using "solid" style rendering and set the transparency to 100% in the volume dialog brightness and transparency panel, and move the nodes on the volume histogram to create a linear ramp. This just provides an on-screen image that looks like a projection. Probably good to use orthographic projection too (menu Tools / Viewing Controls / Camera, projection -> orthographic) instead of perspective projection. Chimera is not able to create a 2d volume data sets which is the exact projection, but I'd like to add that. It is on the Chimera request list (entry 58). http://socrates2.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/wiki/requests Tom -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Chimera-users] 2D projections From: Ana Luiza To: chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu Date: 8/28/09 3:08 PM
Hi,
Is it possible to build 2D projections from a 3D surface in Chimera?
Thanks, Ana Luiza.
