Hi All,

I submitted a bug report on this, but the behavior is both odd and reproducible for me. Using the latest production release and trying to save an image using supersampling, the image is not stitched back together appropriately. It is odd, because it always happens for a certain session file I have. It doesn't seem to happen if I open a new molecule and make a picture. I can provide the session file if needed. First image is using 3x3 and second is 6x6.

I see from the bug report that you're using Mac OS X 10.5. We are having "issues" with the new X11 application in 10.5. And we have seen that slightly different X11 applications are installed on otherwise identical Macs and that reinstalling from the Mac OS X Install Disk fixed a non-chimera bug. Also, I have read on the web that if you install the 10.4 X11 application on 10.5, then OpenGL applications will work better. Since that is not an option for everyone, we are spending more time to improve the Aqua version that is available as a Snapshot release on the chimera download page. It has different bugs, but the graphics is better. So you should try it out and see how well it works for you. Greg Couch UCSF Computer Graphics Lab
