Increasing the mesh thickness in Chimera Volume Viewer

Hi, I wanted to know whether there is an option to increase the mesh thickness in Chimera? I have loaded the map in Volume Viewer, but do not know how to increase the thickness of the mesh. Thanks for your help, Pradeep -- -------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Pradeep, In the Volume Viewer dialog menu, choose "Features... Surface and Mesh options." Then there will be surface and mesh options in the Volume Viewer dialog, including "Mesh line thickness" It's mentioned in the (admittedly long) Volume Viewer docs: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/volumeviewer/framevolumeviewer.html> ... and also in the "density display" tutorial: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/density.html> Can also be controlled with "volume" command: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/volume.html> Elaine ----- Elaine C.
