Using chimerax library code outside of the GUI
by Artie Kushner 02 May '24

02 May '24

Hi, I apologize sincerely since I imagine this comes up often on the mailing list. I'm basically wondering if it's possible to import just the `core` functionality from a chimerax installation into a custom python environment and bypass the GUI and the binary completely. Example: I don't think it matters whether it's linux, mac, or source build, but let's say i installed a clean chimerax via my package manager (`yay i chimerax`). It's at `/opt/chimerax` and looks like this: (venv) ᢹ ritual.rtviii[ /opt/chimerax ] ls -la total 24 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 1 16:08 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 May 1 16:58 .. drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 1 16:51 bin drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 May 1 16:51 include drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 1 16:51 lib drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 1 16:51 share If I launch `chimerax` at the command line, i get a functional GUI etc. It works. I create a fresh custom `virtualenv` with the same python that this chimerax ships: virtualenv --python='/opt/chimerax/bin/python3.11' venv Then i do something ugly in the name of science: i symlink the chimerax folder from the installation into my virtualenv: ln -s /opt/chimerax/lib/python3.11/site-packages/chimerax /home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/chimerax i also tried: for P in $(ls /opt/chimerax/lib/python3.11/site-packages/); do ln -s /opt/chimerax/lib/python3.11/site-packages/$P /home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/ venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/$P; done This enables me to import chimerax modules into my python code that uses this virtualenv: ```/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/test.py from chimerax.core.commands import run from chimerax.core.session import Session import chimerax.mmcif.mmcif as mmcif s = Session("Hi") print(s) run(s,"open 1ubq.cif") ``` However, this is where i'm struggling a little to use any actual functionality (especially interested in cutting, merging structures and operations treating density maps and mmcif structures) because the Session wouldn't initialize well: ``` <chimerax.core.session.Session object at 0x70472673b5d0> NOTE: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/test.py", line 9, in <module> run(s,"open 1ubq.cif") File "/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/venv/lib/python3.11/site- packages/chimerax/core/commands/run.py", line 49, in run results = command.run(text, log=log, return_json=return_json) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/chimerax/core/commands/cli.py", line 2849, in run _compute_available_commands(session) File "/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/chimerax/core/commands/cli.py", line 2431, in _compute_available_commands ts.register_available_commands(session.logger) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute'register_available_commands' BUG: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute'register_available_commands' File "/home/rtviii/dev/try_chimerax/venv/lib/python3.11/site- packages/chimerax/core/commands/cli.py", line 2431, in _compute_available_commands ts.register_available_commands(session.logger) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ _See log for complete Python traceback._ ``` I had some success with a similar approach in PyMol in this regard, but can't quite get this to work in ChimeraX. I really appreciate any advice for achieving this scripting decoupling from GUI/binary if that's possible at all: - either how to "pull in" ChimeraX library code properly (i realize mine is an ugly hack) - how to use library code otherwise - how to bypass the dependence of a lot of commands on the Session object or how to initialize it outside of the gui properly: an example of how to use selections to open a local density map and perform a smoothing, for example. Kindest regards and huge thanks for the monumental application. Artem, UBC Vancouver

Greetings, Was wondering if it’s possible to simultaneously display PAE contact lines for more than two peptides? For example, all contacts between A and B AND B and C etc. Couldn’t find anything on it and have already made the obvious attempts such as "alphafold contacts /A to /C AND /B to /C distance 6” Thanks!

Unroll radius?
by Ricardo Righetto 29 Apr '24

29 Apr '24

Hi, We've been using the 'volume unroll' command on a cylindrical structure, and while we do get some very decent results with the defaults, we want to do a systematic comparison with values entered manually for the inner and outer radius. Specifically, I'd like to know if I can get ChimeraX to report what minimum and maximum radii it is currently using for unrolling the volume? Currently, all I get in the reply log is this: volume unroll #1 Opened unrolled SPA_density.mrc as #2, grid size 68,697,492, pixel 1.22,1.2,1.2, shown at step 1, values float32 https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/downloads/1.8/docs/UsersGuide/midas/v… From the help here it says: > (...) and inner and outer radii *r1* and *r2* (defaults are 90% of the > smallest radius and 110% of the largest radius of the displayed isosurface, > respectively, given the cylinder center and axis direction). Since this is a high-resolution cryo-EM map with many intricate features, it's hard to visually find exactly what are the smallest and largest radii currently displayed at the isosurface. So we'd like to know what ChimeraX is finding by itself and compare it to our measurements. Any tips are appreciated. Thank you! -- Ricardo Diogo Righetto

How to show van der Waals surface
by 我就要柠乐 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

Dear Sir/Madam         Recently, I have been using ChimeraX for graphical analysis, and I find the software to be very user-friendly and efficient. I am currently facing a challenge where I want to display the van der Waals surface of a residue, similar to this illustration（https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-31526-7）. However, I am not quite sure how to write the command correctly. I have looked up the commands on the official website and tried using these two:surface #1:230； surface style mesh. The bottom is open （the rad circle）, but I would like to have a complete van der Waals surface with closed openings, similar to what is typically seen in the literature. I would appreciate your assistance.

Question about visualisation of DNA structure
by Enrico Martinez 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

Dear Chimera-X users, I have a question about the visualisation of the DNA structure obtained after tleap processing for Amber. As I have noticed, due to the renaming of the DNA residues, some of the sugar parts are not correctly recognised by Chimera-X (see the attached screenshot) and so these elements are only displayed as organic ligands. Would it be possible to change its style using some commands, assuming that the names of the residues located at the terminal parts of the DNA helix are DC5, DG3 and DT5, DT3 (so that Amber adds numbers to them)? Would it be possible to change the style of all the residues e.g. showing them ass ring fills or like a color bricks (default vizualisation which looks very cool!) using selection expressions like :DT*,DG*,DC*,DA* ? Many thanks in advance ! Enrico

Dear Chimera-X user! I am preparing a model of GPCR protein for the molecular dynamics simulation. In this structure there is a loop fragment of 10-20 residues which is missed. Is it possible to reconstruct it (e.g. based on the sequence information or alternatively just add manually the missing fragment) using some tool of Chimera-X e.g. combining with the bond command ? Many thanks in advance ! Enrico

Greek characters

Hi guys, I just downloaded a pdb file from AlphaFold DB (AF-P69905-F1-model_v4.pdb). After modifying it with ChimeraX (version 1.6.1 (2023-05-09)) I've saved the modified atomic structure as a cif file. The original pdb file contains this line: COMPND 2 MOLECULE: HEMOGLOBIN SUBUNIT ALPHA; After saving the file as cif format ALPHA is not longer a string but a GREEK character: _entity.pdbx_description "hemoglobin subunit α" Is there any flag in the save command that disables this conversion from plain ASCII to UTF-8?

atom serial_number is inconsistent with PDB serial numbers in multi-chain structure
by Daniel David Richman 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Hi all, I’ve been debugging an off-by one error in a ChimeraX script I’m working on, which I’ve traced to a apparent inconsistency between the serial_number reported by ChimeraX for an atom and the actual serial number of that atom read/written in PDB format. To reproduce: open 5MJ7 select #1/B:6@CA info atoms sel attribute serial_number ==> atom id /B:6@CA serial_number 2548 but the correct serial number for this atom in 5MJ7.pdb is 2549. Maybe this is because the TER record for chain A takes up one serial number in the PDB file, but ChimeraX doesn’t include it as a numbered atom? Regardless, how can I query ChimeraX for the actual serial number that will be written if I write out a PDB file? Thanks, Daniel

How to make an MD template for ISOLDE?
by Guillaume Gaullier 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Hi Tristan and chimerax-users, Some time ago I asked the list about modeling PTM and got several helpful answer, including this one: https://mail.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/archives/list/chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu… Now, I am working on a structure containing chlorophyll A molecules (residue code CLA) and realized that it won’t work for MDFF in ISOLDE because there is no MD template for it. After trying to manually fit one of these molecules rigidly, I concluded that I would rather spend the rest of the month learning how to make an MD template for it (than next month painstakingly fitting every single molecule manually rigidly). From the message linked above, I think this should be doable because this time it is not a covalent modification on an otherwise parameterized residue, but simply a new ligand (ok, maybe the coordinated Mg2+ makes it a bit more complicated?). I looked up ANTECHAMBER, and also some documentation from OpenMM, but that got me nowhere, mostly because I have little clue what the task really entails. My guess is that I need some program to take the CLA residue in PDB or mmCIF format (which I can easily save from a previous PDB entry) and write out an OpenMM XML file like the one you sent me back then for KCX. Is this correct? The ANTECHAMBER documentation mentions many programs and formats, and I got totally confused. If you have time to elaborate a bit on the specific practical steps to take (including how to supply the final XML file to ISOLDE), that would be super helpful! I can do with pointers to documentation, not afraid to read, but I need help getting oriented. Thank you in advance!

Finding unmodeled blobs in a map
by Guillaume Gaullier 24 Apr '24

24 Apr '24

Hello, With `volume zone` I can show the parts of a map close to an atomic model. Is there a way to do the opposite, i.e. show only the parts of a map that don’t enclose any atoms? This would be already very helpful only as a visualization. But even better would be a way to build a list of markers at the centroids of such unmodeled blobs, to easily navigate to them. Or maybe this is too narrow in scope and better left to ISOLDE? (Sorry Tristan… more feature suggestions…).

Dear Chimera-X users I am preparing the structure of the protein-DNA complex for molecular dynamics simulation with Amber. This is the original pdb: https://www.rcsb.org/structure/5FKW When I try to parametrize it the tleap shows the following error because of the absence of some atoms from the phosphate: FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 733>.A<P 32> does not have a type. FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 733>.A<OP1 33> does not have a type. FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 733>.A<OP2 34> does not have a type. FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 758>.A<P 32> does not have a type. FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 758>.A<OP1 33> does not have a type. FATAL: Atom .R<DG5 758>.A<OP2 34> does not have a type. Would it be possible to use some commands of the Chimera-X to automatically repair this part of the DNA by adding missing atoms ? Thank you in advance ! Enrico

Cutting out an asymmetric unit from the map
by Das, Abhinaba 23 Apr '24

23 Apr '24

Hi! I was wondering if there is a sequence of commands one could use to extract an asymmetric unit from the original map after roughly fitting the model into it. The positions of these extracted maps should of course be preserved and should on the same grid. One can then better fit the model in this extracted ASU density. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

ChimeraX does not have ray-tracing, but as you discovered with the ChimeraX "soft" lighting (sugar cube icon in the toolbar), it does have ambient-occlusion lighting simulated by multiple multidirectional light sources, which Chimera does not have. The rest of this description pertains to ChimeraX: When you try the different lighting icons in the toolbar, the corresponding command is shown in the Log. So that should help you learn some of the common options. However, there are lots more options available with the commands than are represented by toolbar icons. (1) the "lighting" command has the presets including soft, but also options for intensities, colors and directions of the directional lights (key light and fill light), depth cueing, and shadows, among many other things. There is no GUI for changing the direction interactively, however. See the "lighting" manpage and many options explained therein. It also shows pictures of the relevant icons from the toolbar. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/lighting.html> (2) the "graphics" command has options for background color, silhouette edges (the outlines that are usually black), and triangulation fineness of atom/bond/ribbon representations, see: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/graphics.html> (3) the "material" command has control over shininess of objects <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/material.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Running AlphaFold through Chimerax vs. Colab directly
by Coyle, Maxwell C 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Hello! I’ve been predicting structures recently using the AlphaFold tool through ChimeraX (which directs to the alphafold21_predict_colab.ipynb notebook), but I’ve noticed I get often quite different results when I run the same prediction through the AlphaFold.ipynb notebook directly in Colab. I was wondering if anybody could point me to the major differences between these two implementations? Are they searching different libraries to generate a multiple sequence alignment? Are they using different numbers of iterations or energy minimization strategies?

transform coordinates of an atomic model
by Engeholm, Maik 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Hi Tom, hi Eric, thanks a lot for answering my previous question so comprehensively! Hope it's OK to bother you again. This is about something completely unrelated. I would like to apply a transformation (rotation plus translation) to an atomic model. I need to change the coordinates of the model relative to the overall coordinate system. Changing the scene or camera coordinates is not an option, since in the end I want to place multiple copies of my model (in this case a nucleosome) in a specific orientation relative to each other (i.e. within the same coordinate system) to model an array of nucleosomes. If I remember correctly, back in Chimera this could be achieved with "model.openState.global/localXform(transformation)" where transformation was an chimera.Xform object. But as far as I can see this is not supported in chimeraX. Here is a reproducible example of the simplest case, in which I define the center and two (roughly) orthogonal axes of my atomic model (i.e. the normal of the DNA superhelix and the dyad axis) and try to map those onto the origin of the coordinate system and two unit vectors. """ from chimerax.core.commands import run import numpy as np from numpy import cross, dot np.set_printoptions(suppress = True) run (session, 'close session') run (session, 'windowsize 360 360') target_centre = np.array((0, 0, 0)) target_normal = np.array((0, 1, 0)) target_dyad = np.array((0, 0, 1)) target_3rd_axis = cross(target_normal, target_dyad) run (session, 'open 3lz0 name 3lz0') pdb3lz0_DNA_plane = run (session, 'define plane #1/I,J:-56-56') pdb3lz0_DNA_centre = run (session, 'define centroid #1/I,J:-56-56') pdb3lz0_dyad_base_pair = run (session, 'define centroid #1/I,J:0') pdb3lz0_dyad_axis = run (session, 'define axis #1.4 #1.5') pdb3lz0_centre = session.models[3].xform_center pdb3lz0_normal = session.models[3].xform_normal pdb3lz0_dyad = session.models[6].xform_direction pdb3lz0_3rd_axis = cross(pdb3lz0_normal, pdb3lz0_dyad) rotation_inverse = np.c_[pdb3lz0_3rd_axis, pdb3lz0_normal, pdb3lz0_dyad] rotation = np.linalg.inv(rotation_inverse) translation = -pdb3lz0_centre transformation = np.c_[rotation, translation] print(session.models[0].position.matrix) """ At this point I have tried to modify the position.matrix with "session.models[0].position.matrix = transformation" but this gives me an "AttributeError: property 'matrix' of 'Place' object has no setter". I'm sure there must be a way to transform an atomic model in this way and would be really grateful for your help. Thanks a lot in advance, Maik

Hi Asma, It is recommended to send ChimeraX questions to chimerax-users(a)cgl.ucsf.edu CC'd here, if the questions do not include any information that needs to be private (i.e. do not include your license key or proprietary data). I don't know all technical aspects of the program. I'm not sure exactly what this error is but the first thing to try is to get a newer version of ChimeraX. As the message says, you are running an extremely old version and probably if you download and use the current version 1.7 this error message will not appear. However, if it does, then you can ask again, or use the usual bug reporting mechanism (ChimeraX menu Help... Report a Bug). I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi Matt, The address for ChimeraX questions is chimerax-users(a)cgl.ucsf.edu <mailto:chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> CC'd here, as mentioned in the "contact us" page: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/contact.html <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/contact.html>> Yes, of course you can make some of the atoms transparent and others not. I say "atoms" because at least in your image, you are displaying the atoms in the sphere style. You just need to specify that set of atoms in the transparency command, for example, for atoms of B chain only to be 70% transparent: transparency /B 70 target a ...or you could use menu: Select... Chains... [choose the one that you want] ...and then use command: transparency sel 70 target a The "target a" part means atoms. The default is to change transparency of only molecular surface (target s), so if you omit "target a" nothing happens to the atoms. Of course you can use a different % value than 70.

import from local file in chimerax-python script
by Engeholm, Maik 18 Apr '24

18 Apr '24

Hi there, I'm running a python script either from within ChimeraX (with "open http://myScript.py") or from the command line (using "chimerax http://myScript.py"). As the script gets longer and longer, I would like to store some class definitions in a separate file (http://classDefinitions.py within the same directory as http://myScript.py and then import those into the main script with some command like "from classDefinitions import testClass". This, however, gives me an "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'testClass'". What is the correct way to do this? Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers, Maik

Volume flip issue
by Luca Pellegrini 18 Apr '24

18 Apr '24

Hi, if I flip a map with ‘volume flip #ID', save the flipped map and then open it, the saved copy is noticeably shifted by a small amount relative to the original flipped map. This doesn’t happen if I save and reopen the map without flipping. Can you please explain what causes this and if it can be avoided? Thanks, Luca Luca Pellegrini, PhD Department of Biochemistry University of Cambridge Cambridge CB2 1GA UK

Color accuracy in ChimeraX / flat lighting
by Élie Lambert 17 Apr '24

17 Apr '24

Hi all, I wrote a script to color code individual chains of a structure based on fold change values. When I plug the resulting rgb values in ChimeraX, the colors that are rendered are off by quite a bit in some cases. Attached is an example demonstrating such a difference. On the left is shown the color provided for the selected chain, which shows correctly in the 'Select color' window as rgb(196,216,214). However the resulting structure rendered has a different actual color (rgb(227,251,248), as measured with eyedropper tool in Illustrator). This variation is not consistent, colors with higher saturation are not impacted as much, but can still be a bit off. I am using flat lighting with depthcue off, which I believe should mean that no shadows could affect the rendering. I have tried providing colors in other formats such as hex with no difference. I just updated to ChimeraX version 1.7.1 which also did not help (Windows). Please let me know if I am missing anything obvious. Thanks in advance! Regards, Elie

Hello Eric, just one question. When I load a netcdf trajectory using: open ./trajectory_part1.nc structureModel #1 Would it be possible to additionally precise the range of the loaded frames e.g. to load the first 5000 frames or in range of 500 to 5000 etc? I also noticed that the maximal number of frames is 9999, isn't it ? Many thanks in advance !

hide silhouettes for pseudobonds and mesh
by Daniel Larsson 11 Apr '24

11 Apr '24

Hi all, Is it possible to specifically hide silhouettes? The “graphics silhouettes” command unfortunately does not take a spec argument. One example is to hide it for the mesh when you want to show the model and the map at the same time. Silhouettes around the mesh can make the scene look very cluttered. For this particular case, my colleague showed me a trick to use the selection command instead of “graphics silhouettes” and change the appearance of the selection, e.g. “graphics selection color black width 1”. But it gives slighly different apperance with far clip planes, where silhouettes are truncated while selections are enclosing clipped elements, removing some of the depth illusion from the mist. Another scenario is for pseudobonds, e.g. when displaying cartoon and mainchain atoms at the same time using the trick with “cartoon suppress false; cartoon tether opacity 0” given in this thread https://mail.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/archives/list/chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu… I like to have the cartoon visible to guide the eye where the main chain goes, but I do not want the pseudo bonds to be visible since that adds clutter and is confusing. But the silhouettes command will outline the connections to the ribbon for the C3’ and C4’ atoms in nucleic acids.

Dear Chimera-X users ! Typically having loaded pdb of the system I use the following command to load the netcdf file, which replaces current pdb with the trajectory: open ./trajectory_part1.nc structureModel #1 would it be possible to load in the same section the second part of the same trajectory and merge the both into the same ensemble ? E.g. if I run subsequently the same command with another trajectory, it will produce another ensemble related to the second trajectory (and not merge the both together): open ./stripped_*part2.nc structureModel #1 Many thanks in advance!

Central path for bundles on shared computing environment?
by Ricardo Righetto 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

Hi, We are setting up a new cluster at our university, and I stumbled upon the following problem: our nodes used for remote visualization don't have access to the internet. Therefore, users running an interactive graphical session won't be able to install bundles by themselves, which was the case in our old cluster. One workaround is to start ChimeraX either without GUI or with X forwarding over SSH on one of the normal login nodes (no high-end visualization capability) just for the purpose of downloading and installing bundles from the toolshed. This is however inconvenient to most users. Another approach is to install using the 'toolshed' command with a pre-downloaded wheel, but also not ideal. My thought would be to preinstall the most common plugins we use (like ArtiaX and ISOLDE) into a shared location, and ChimeraX would then find the bundles installed there upon startup. Therefore, my question is: is any other path other than the user's home folder supported for installing bundles? If yes, what is the order of search paths? Alternatively, is there some environment variable or other setting that I can use to tell ChimeraX where to find installed bundles? Thanks in advance, -- Ricardo Diogo Righetto

Hello All, I am trying to create an animation morphing between two states of a protein/nucleic acid complex (one binary, one with an incoming nucleotide). Excluding the nucleotide, the corresponding chain IDs between structures are the same and the sequences are the same. In both ChimeraX and PyMol, I am able to create the morphing animation however, only the protein appears (nucleic acid just does not appear in the animation). Am I missing something obvious? I appreciate any insights. Thanks, Shawn R

This way, I would be able to satisfy the doubts of the audience without breaking the flow of the presentation.

Transparency of cartoon and surface
by Enrico Martinez 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

Dear ChimeraX users, I am trying to add transparency on the cartoon representation of the protein that have additionally transparent surface in the same session. hide protein target a surface protein rainbow protein target c palette paired-12 rainbow protein target s palette paired-12 transparency 90 transparency protein 10 target c The last command hides all cartoons. I've also tried adding the transparency option directly to the rainbow command: rainbow protein target c palette paired-12 transparency 20 But it had the same effect as the total disappearance of the cartoons. Is it possible to have two different levels of the transparency on both cartoon and surface representation ? Thank you in advance ! Enrico

About surface representation
by Enrico Martinez 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

Dear ChimeraX users! I am performing visualization of a molecular dynamics trajectory containing a membrane system. I have two questions about surface representation. 1- I've found that the quality of the surface could be mainly controlled using two options gridSpacing and probeRadius so that decreasing the both usually produces better results. Are there other relevant parameters that could improve the quality of the surface ? 2- Setting different degrees of transparency of different selections. In the case when the lipids in the modelled membrane are splitted into two parts (according to the amber force field) I tried to colour the heads and tails differently setting different degree of transparency, using # first color the entire membrane in blue color ~protein blue surface transparency 40 # color only the headgroups in red setting less transparency color :PC red surface transparency 80 This looks as expected only in the current frame. However, when I start to play a trajectory using coordset, the both selections become equally transparent (setting to 40). Is it possible to control this in a more flexible way ? Thank you very much in advance Best regards Enrico

Suggestions for optimizing movie quality when working with file size limits?
by Vorländer,Matthias Kopano 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

Dear ChimeraX team, Making movies in ChimeraX is my favorite way of communicating my research, but unfortunately many journals have strict file size limits for supplementary movie files (30 MB in my case). I am wondering if there are suggestions for settings that give relatively small files with good visual appearance, i.e a specific format that works better then others. I am currently encoding in .mp4. Is it preferable to set qscale rather than quality/bitrate? I assume both bitrate and the windowsize scale linear with data size? Or are there recommendations for external software that efficiently compresses high-quality ChimeraX movies? Many thanks, Matthias
