Dear all, I know how to change the size of the balls using the vdwdefine, but I don't see the command/option to change the diameter of the cylinder in bs representation. Can I do this? best JD Dr. Jean-Didier Maréchal Lecturer Computational Biotechnological Chemistry @ Transmet Unitat de Química Física Departament de Química Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Edifici C.n. 08193 Cerdanyola (Barcelona) Tel: +34.935814936 e-mail: JeanDidier.Marechal@uab.es ----- Missatge original ----- De: chimera-users-request@cgl.ucsf.edu Data: Dijous, Maig 7, 2009 9:00 pm Assumpte: Chimera-users Digest, Vol 73, Issue 7

Thanks, Bala
So it was formerly fast on the same computer? This could happen on a Linux computer if you updated the kernel and forgot to reinstall the graphics driver (from ATI or NVidia, the open source 3D drivers still need work, but are improving). Another possibility, on all operatings sytems, is that there is a background process that is using a lot of CPU or memory, so chimera doesn't have the resources it used to.
If you just want to check the graphics performance, then you can use the Benchmark tool in Tool / Utilities to guage the current performance. And then you can compare to the reported scores to see if your graphics performance is reasonable (the Show button in the Benchmark tool brings up the web page).

HI,
I am trying to look for the various filtering options as descibed on the Chimera webpage (guide to volume data display). Indicated are Gaussian filtering, Fourier filter, Hide dust, etc ... unfortunately, I can only find the Gaussian filter option under TOOLS/VOLUME DATA
but cannot find the others ... can you point me to these other options, in particular the Fourier filter ? (am using version 1.3 !) Tx. -Thomas
