Hi Dany, Not exactly, other than using "open" to open the BILD file. However, you might be interested in using the "shape" command instead. The result is a little different (makes a surface model) but if it has all the shapes you need, it might be even better because you can make later modifications to the surface model. For example, you could later change the color of the shape by selecting it and using the Actions… Color menu. "shape" documentation, including examples: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/shape.html> There is also a "define" command that creates discs to show planes and cylinders to show axes, where the planes and axes are calculated from specified atoms: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/define.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.

Hello all, Is there an option to type in BILD commands directly into the Chimera command line? (I know you can create a file with BILD commands and open it with Chimera but it would be helpful just to open the command line and type them in) Thank you, Dany
