Hi,
Instead of using chimera sessions (which can get very big) to save my work
when preparing figures for publications, I save all my commands in a .cxc
file to be read by chimeraX later. Is there a single command that outputs
all the necessary information in an appropriate format needed to restore a
view?
Currently what I have done is *alias myview view matrix; zoom *to output
the information into the log, but the output needs to be re-formatted
whenever I want to use that information with the view matrix and zoom
commands. Is there a command that outputs that information in a format
ready for copying and pasting?
I know name view can partially fulfil what I am looking for, but it is only
session specific.
On a related note, I want to also restore the clipping for each
figure/panel I create, but I don't seem to be using the clip command
appropriately. For example, if I enter the command clip list, and the
output is Using 2 clip planes: far -34.697, near -45.723, executing the
command clip far -34.697 near -45.723 does not restore the same view. Am
I missing something?
Thanks,
Yazan
