[Chimera-users] label3d

Dear Devleena, For now, Chimera does not have a label3d-like tool, nor is it likely to in the near future (though in the long term it could happen). For now, you are going to have to take the neon/conic image and label it "by hand" in Photoshop or some such. We do anticipate adding an "ilabel"-like tool soon (so that arbitrary 2D labels can be placed on the Chimera image), but even that won't help here since those won't be transmitted through to neon or conic either. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab pett@cgl.ucsf.edu http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Monday, November 17, 2003, at 10:38 AM, Robin Parsons wrote:

Dear Robin, Thanks for your email. I have installed Chimera. Its easier to use than Midas. Unfortunately, I dont see the label3d option in it that was available with Midas. So, I am unable to get labels in neon. Thanks Devleena
