Exporting 3D models from ChimeraX?
by Karjalainen, Mikael 07 Oct '20

Hi! Is it possible to export 3D models from ChimeraX? Preferably in formats GLB (best for powerpoint), FBX, OBJ or 3MF? You can in old Chimera, but for powerpoint presentations it can only give STL files which do not have textures. Here are supported file formats for Office products: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/3d-content-guidelines-for-micros… Regards, Mikael

Dear Sir or Madam, I am a graduate student at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, and I am working on the development of virtual reality applications that can be used to visualize biological microscopic data. May I get access to the ChimeraX GitHub repository for further non-commercial research? Looking forward to your reply. Thank you very much!

orientation
by Fabian Glaser 02 Oct '20

Dear chimerax experts, I have maybe a trivial question, I am willing to show a figure with several copies of the same protein, but when I move one copy of them using the "move x 10 model #1” etc command, they rotate upon probably the center of mass of all the models, such as when I separate all of them, they are rotated slightly different. I would like to show them in exactly the same orientation, is there a trick to move them in such a way that will be show in exactly the same orientation? Thanks a lot!
