Hi Thomas,
I have two problems to report
1) the longbond command doesn't seem to work (with chimera 2304 or 2306)
As per the release notes, the longbond command was changed in the 1.2304 release because the way that missing connectivity is handled was changed. Starting with 1.2304, the long bond is automatically hidden (but not broken) and a dashed pseudobond is displayed in its place. To hide these pseudobonds, you use "~longbond"; to show them again you use "longbond". This change is noted in red text in the status line if you try to use "longbond" the old way.
2) I saved a session under chimera 2304 but couldn't open it after=20 upgrading to 2306
I have no trouble restoring a 1.2304 session in 1.2306. We would need the session he's having trouble with to track this down. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab pett@cgl.ucsf.edu http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu
