Hi Gabor, The "newmap" command is part of a plug-in "Resample map commands" still available on the following web page. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/experimental/experimental.html It has never been included in the Chimera distributions. In cases where the new map is part of an existing map the volume dialog subregion panel can be used. Also the "vop #0 resample onGrid #1" command can resample one map on the grid of another map. If there are interesting cases where newmap is needed please explain them to me. Reading IMAGIC maps is item #100 on the feature request list. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/plans.html I'm not sure when it will be implemented, there are at least a dozen higher priority requests.

Hi Tom,
I was talking about this:
"Resample map commands
newmap 100 100 100 2.4 2.4 2.4 -120 -120 -120 This command creates a new map containing zero values of size 100^3 grid points with grid plane spacing equal to 2.4 and origin (i.e. physical xyz position of grid value at index 0,0,0) equal to (-120,-120,-120). An outline box is shown for the new map."
Here I could create a new map at a specified position with specified size but the Atom Box feature will be fine and the "getcrd sel" command also. Thank you, Elaine and Giovanni!
At last, a feature request: it would be convenient if I could open IMAGIC files directly in Chimera.
Bye,
Gabor
