I am revisiting a movie I made in chimera some time ago with a painfully long script.

In this script, I used a command syntax like this:

transition transparency #0 0 0.1 1 

copy file 'filename'

To change the global transparency of model #0 (with lots of different elements all coloured and represented differently) 

This command seems to have disappeared. Is there an equivalent way now? The only way I can find is to use transparency in the colordef command, but that will be extremely cumbersome. What is the preferred way to fade a model in and out now?

Thanks in advance,
