Hello, I am trying to use Chimera to model pdb files into EM maps. When I select the red cyan stereo, the EM map is stereo but the pdb structure is not. -Is there anyway to display pdb in stereo in Chimera, how? -Is there another program that would allow me to do the same thing: fit pdb in EM density map-in stereo(other than "O")? -When I use Chimera on windows VISTA the side view panel does not appear and a message about graphic card appear, anyway to solve this? Thank you all very much. Aymen Yassin. Postdoc Research Affiliate Wadsworth Center, Albany,NY.

Hi Aymen, In my tests the red-cyan stereo works fine on PDB models and maps. Perhaps you are using a color near red or cyan for the PDB model. That will make it work exceedingly poorly. In general, the red-cyan stereo only works well for monochrome (gray) images. I guess the Windows Vista message about the Side View not working means your graphics driver or graphics card is not capable of making that second 3-d graphics window. That almost never happens. Perhaps you can install a graphics driver that will make it work. Greg Couch in our lab knows more about this and can advise you. Tom ayassin@wadsworth.org wrote:

The message about your graphics card also mentions that you might be able to fix the problem by updating your graphics driver. If you have with Intel graphics, you should get a newer driver directly from Intel at <http://downloadcenter.intel.com/>. If you tell me more about your computer (run the dxdiag program, save all information, and email me the result), I could be more specific.
