animations
by Giorgio Luciano 01 May '17

Hello ! In the effort to create a more integrated pipeline with vastly used 3d software (I use mainly C4D and modo) is there a way to export animation from chimera in a format that other software can interpret. To make an example. If I wiggle a molecule in chimera, can I export the animation in a format that does not lot this info ? And eventually are there plan to create this feature in chimeraX ? Giorgio

by Steffen Graether 05 Apr '17

I realize that traffic is very low on the Chimerax-users list, but is there any thought about adding an announce list so that we could follow announcements on new releases as development progresses? Steffen

Hi all, We have released an alpha version of ChimeraX. While it still lacks many features, it has enough useful new and fun features that you might want to take it out for a spin even if it doesn’t prove ready to be your day-to-day workhorse yet. Hope you like it!

Opening X3D?
by Aaron Lewis 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Dear x-users, I've tried to open x3d files using recent Mac and Linux dailies, but without any success. This would be useful as a way to view maps colored in Chimera 1 & Segger. I take it from docs/user/commands/open.html that the following usage should be supported: open ~/Desktop/color.x3d format x3d but I only get the error below. Any suggestions would be welcome. Aaron -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/cmd_line/tool.py", line 158, in execute cmd.run(cmd_text) File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/core/commands/cli.py", line 2257, in run result = ci.function(session, **kw_args) File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/core/commands/open.py", line 108, in open models = session.models.open(paths, format=format, name=name, **kw) File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/core/models.py", line 351, in open session, filenames, format=format, name=name, **kw) File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/core/io.py", line 368, in open_multiple_data models, status = open_data(session, fspec, format=format, name=name, **kw) File "/Applications/ChimeraX.app/Contents/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/chimerax/core/io.py", line 298, in open_data open_func = fmt.open_func AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'open_func'
