is there a way to do the same kind of duplicate on the surfaces imported from IMOD, or the chimera markers from Volume Path Tracer? -Jeff Thomas Goddard wrote:
Hi Jeff,
There is no copy and paste capability for models in Chimera. The simplest way to copy and paste everything is to save a session, then open it. Chimera ask if you want to close the already open models and you say no. This method of course only works if all your displayed models are included in Chimera session files. You can also duplicate individual volume models in their current orientations with the volume dialog File / Duplicate menu entry.
Once you duplicate the models use Model Panel to activate only the copied models so they can be moved as a group so they do not exactly overlay the original models.
