chimera exiting every time after clicking browse

Hello, I have MacOS Catalina 10.15.3. Chimera is exiting every time after clicking browse. Versions 1.13 and 1.14 are doing this. Best, Dominique

Hi Dominique, Does this mean that you cannot start Chimera at all, or that you when you browse for a file to open from within Chimera that it exits? —Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Hello, The second one. I can open chimera from the command line with the maps I want or from a file browser but if I click browse in a session, the session immediately exits.

Hi Dominique, In the Mac Finder, use the Go→Go To Folder… menu item and in the resulting dialog type ~/.chimera . This will get you to the folder where Chimera saves preferences. In that folder rename the “preferences” file to some other name. Then start Chimera and see if that makes any difference. —Eric
