Chimera-users, I am very new to chimera. I would like to export a scene with spheres for 3d printing but the ( .stl) file size is enormous. They contain way to many triangles. I tested a smallish molecule in MeshLab and I could decrease the number of faces from 699732 (34MB) to 34986 faces (1.7MB) with minor flattening of the sphere. Is there a way to have chimera generate spheres with fewer faces? Thank you, Bill Eliason
