What cmd should I invoke in a --nogui script to copy the rendered image to a file?
From the interactive viewer cmd line, I can successfully execute 'copy file foo.png png'; however, when trying to execute the following:
% chimera --nogui cmd:dostuff where 'dostuff' is: open 1yc4 color byelement #0 copy file foo.png png I get: Fetching 1yc4 from web site www.rcsb.org Done fetching 1yc4; verifying... Opening 1yc4... 1 model opened Opened 1yc4 containing 1 model, 1890 atoms, and 427 residues Rendering high resolution image...Error while processing cmd:dostuff: AttributeError: '_chimera.NoGuiViewer' object has no attribute 'pilImages' (see reply log for Python traceback info) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/heiland/chimera/build/share/__main__.py", line 59, in ? value = chimeraInit.init(sys.argv) File "CHIMERA/share/chimeraInit.py", line 298, in init prefixableType=1) File "CHIMERA/share/chimera/__init__.py", line 1217, in open File "CHIMERA/share/Midas/ChimeraExtension.py", line 28, in func # lswdir = os.path.split(thisdir)[0] File "CHIMERA/share/Midas/midas_text.py", line 91, in processCommandFile File "CHIMERA/share/Midas/midas_text.py", line 60, in makeCommand File "CHIMERA/share/Midas/midas_text.py", line 542, in doCopy File "<string>", line 1, in ?

Hi Randy, It is my understanding that the GUI is used to render the image, thus it is not possible to save images when in nogui mode. (Others, please correct me if I've gotten this wrong!)

With POVray in the latest snapshot, you can now use the "raytrace" keyword of the copy command to get a ray-traced image in nogui mode. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab pett@cgl.ucsf.edu http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Feb 9, 2007, at 8:03 AM, Elaine Meng wrote:
