Hi Javier, The molmap command has a "modelId" option to specify output map model number: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/molmap.html> Thus, you could give the two maps two different model numbers, and then control them separately with the volume command, for example: molmap #0:.a 7 mod 2 molmap #0:.b 7 mod 3 vol #2 color hotpink vol #3 color dodgerblue I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.

Hi,
I am interested in generating a map from a PDB with 2 chains, and color each chain differently. I can do it very easily using the graphical interface, but I couldn't figure out how to do it from the command line. Here are my commands:
molmap #0:.A 7 molmap #0:.B 7
And now adding color is simple:
volume #0 color red
But this adds color to both maps. Is there a way to specify a submap, so I can add color separately. I am looking for something like this:
volume #0:.A color red
which I tried and didn't work. Thank you for your help.
