Never mind. I found out that I should use the Linux 64-bit Off-screen OpenGL build. On Mar 3, 2009, at 10:12 AM, Mark Moll wrote:
I'd like to load some pdb files, change the view/colors/ representation/etc., and save the resulting view as an image. If possible, I'd like to do this in the background without the GUI. This doesn't seem to work. The latest daily build gives the errors below when using this simple script:
import Midas Midas.copy(file='test.png', format='PNG', width=600, height=400)
Should I be using a different command?
