Normally I am generating movies at 640x480 or 1280x960. My graphics display is 2000x1500. I need to generate movies at 4000x4000 & 2000x2000. When I set the window size to 4000x4000 it limits it to the graphics display. How do I generate movies at the larger size?

With the currently distributed code it is not possible without editing the Python code. However, it would be fairly easy to enable alternative resolutions in the Movie Recorder's Frame Options if supersampling or raytracing were enabled. For the Python programmers out there, to hardcode in an alternative resolution, edit MovieRecorder/RecorderHandler.py, and change the arguments to the saveImage call to turn on supersampling or raytracing, and add arguments to set the width and height (eg., width=2000, height=2000). -- Greg
Do you mean something like this? saveImage(save_path, format = self.img_fmt, supersample = True, raytrace = self.raytrace, raytraceWait = True, raytracePreview = False, hideDialogs = False, raiseWindow = False, statusMessages = False, task = self.task, width = 2000, height = 2000 ) Matthew Dougherty National Center for Macromolecular Imaging Baylor College of Medicine ________________________________________ From: Greg Couch [gregc@cgl.ucsf.edu] Sent: Monday, February 14, 2011 5:03 PM To: Dougherty, Matthew T Cc: chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu Subject: Re: [Chimera-users] movie spatial sizes On 02/14/2011 02:31 PM, Dougherty, Matthew T wrote:

Hi Matt, I've added a "size" option to the "movie record" command so you can now specify larger movie width and height than your screen. It will be in tonight's daily builds. For example, movie record size 2048,2048 Greg is working on making dome projection work with off-screen image saving. Currently it only works when the image is captured from the screen. If you specify a size in the movie record command it automatically uses off-screen image capture. Tom
