Question about ChimeraX

Greetings, Hope that you're doing well. Currently, I'm using dock6 to develop some experiments as you understand this software needs Chimera as visualizator, however, I was tried to create a surface for a specific protein and this software generated an issue because my protein exceed the size, so I read the possible solutions and one of them is using ChimeraX, nevertheless, I downloaded ChimeraX and I was able to create the surface, however, I didn't find an option to save this surface and I didn't find and option to create a DMS file. Then I have already read your user guide to ChimeraX but I didn't find information about how to create the DMS file, or how to save the surface information in any format that Chimera would be able to open, because I found a lot of differences between "Structure editing" option in Chimera and ChimeraX, then I'm requesting your help to create the DMS file using ChimeraX or indicanting me a way to save the surface information to use it later using Chimera. Thank you so much for your help.

Hi, I have encountered very useful the Bundle Sample Code ( https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/devel/writing_bundles.html) as a reminder of how to do a bundle, the only thing that I would like being added to it is an example documentation. Regards, Daniel Palma Igor

Hi ChimeraX developers, Could someone let me know after the superposition of the cryo-EM map in PDB, what is the command to see PDB through the cryo-EM map densities (how to make cryo-EM map transparent without changing domain color in the cryo-EM map to see the PDB)? Thank you. Kind regards, Priyanka
