Hi, I'm using ChimeraX v 1.8 (2024-06-10) and I'm having a problem with the morph command. No matter how I format the command I'm getting the same error message of "Require at least 2 structures for morph" I've tried morph #3,4 core 0.1 frames 75 wrap t and morph #3#4 core 0.1 frames 75 wrap t These are 2 electron density maps so there's no sequence info docked in yet. Thanks for any tips or advice on what I'm doing wrong.

Hi Bryan, Since this is a ChimeraX question, I've CC'd chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu <mailto:chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> --- in the future please use that mailing list for ChimeraX questions, because we don't want to confuse users between the two programs, for which the answers may be different. This answer is for ChimeraX: The "morph" command is for atomic structures, not maps. That's why it keeps saying you need structures! This is mentioned in the first sentence of the help page: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/morph.html> To instead morph maps, see the "volume morph" command: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/volume.html#morph> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
