Hi Eric, I can only answer the first question. We have a list of some externally developed Chimera plugins here: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/plugins/plugins.html> Of course, these are only the ones we know about -- probably others exist! There are also some locally developed "experimental" plugins, but most are old and have already been added to the official version of Chimera. <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/experimental/experimental.html> Best, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.

Hello, Does a list exist somewhere of plugins developed for Chimera, or would we need to find them posted separately on a host site?
Also, I found recently a software that gives preset .stl mesh resolutions for all atoms of the same element so that when they are 3d-printed, the atoms can all be distinguished from one another: http://cad4.cpac.washington.edu/WinXMorphHome/Cif2VRMLHome/Cif2VRML.htm However, the rest of the software seems lacking in reference to chimera's capabilities, is there any way that Chimera could have a similar feature? Ideally it would allow the "subdivisions" property of the viewing effects apply to every element, similar to how radius applies to all atoms of the same element.
Thanks, Eric
