movie image resolution
Hi, It is very easy to specify resolution for a saved image, but not for the images used to create a movie. Is there a way to generate a movie or a stack of images with higher resolution then a display screen? I seem to be limited to 1273x870. Thanks a lot, Anastasia
Hi Anastasia, There is not an option to record movies larger than the Chimera window size. It wouldn't be difficult to add that. I've put it on the Chimera request list http://socrates2.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/wiki/requests If you want to go to some trouble you can do it now using the Chimera "perframe" command to save an image with the "copy" command for each frame, then run a movie encoder on the frames (could use ffmpeg included in the Chimera distribution) to make the movie file. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/perframe.html http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/copy.html Tom -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Chimera-users] movie image resolution From: Anastasia A Aksyuk To: chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu Date: 8/28/09 2:23 PM

Note that there is a "windowsize" command in chimera to set the graphics window to a particular size. See: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/windowsize.html - Greg On Fri, 28 Aug 2009, Tom Goddard wrote:
