09 Oct '20

Hi! I am trying to get transparent background in png pictures, but it is not working and I get error "Cannot determine format for". Only way to get this is by using command line? I am writing something like: save C:\Users\a\Desktop\k [ format png ] [ supersample 4 ] [ transparentBackground true ] or save C:\Users\a\Desktop\k format png supersample 4 transparentBackground true Also, I have tried different variations.

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

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

orientation
by Fabian Glaser 02 Oct '20

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!

ensemble match; ensemble cluster; plotting RMSD
by Cristina Marino Buslje 25 Sep '20

25 Sep '20

Dear ChimeraX users, After a hole evening trying everything, reading every possible page, I can not do what I want that is superposing models of an NMR PDB (ej 20 models) all by all and compare their RMSD (a matrix if possible). And also compare this ensemble (NMR with 20 models) with another (let's say another NMR with 30-50 models). My chimeraX has not the option "Structure comparison" in the tools bars. The web manual doesn't give the commands needed to do so. Below is what is written in the manual but, as I said, structure comparison is not in my tools bar. " Ensemble Match, a tool in the Structure Comparison and MD/Ensemble Analysis categories". I know that there are tools to work with MD simulations (several conformers), but also can not find in the version install in my windows 10 computer. I know this is passible from chimeraX. Could you please help me find the solution? has anybody try this? Is very important for me to do it.

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] Is RTX support planned?
by Tom Goddard 25 Sep '20

25 Sep '20

Hi Gökhan, We haven't considered working on raytracing in ChimeraX yet. What advantage do you think it would have? One that I can think of is that having multiples models with transparency could work correctly with raytracing. ChimeraX uses the same material for all surfaces now which defines how light bounces off it, how shiny it is. The ChimeraX material command controls those settings https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/material.html <https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/material.html> We may in the future allow different models to use different materials. ChimeraX also allows using textures on surfaces with the "color image" command, although good use cases are hard to come by: https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#image <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#image> Generic 3D modeling packages like Blender, Cinema4d, Maya, ... work poorly or not at all with vertex colors which ChimeraX uses for multi-color surfaces like coloring a molecule surface by electrostatic potential. But sometimes people want to export those colorings from ChimeraX, for instance to print a 3D color surface and so they want the colors in a texture. So I have been looking at that use and will probably try to allow electrostatic and hydrophobic coloring to use a texture and to export as GLTF, OBJ, Collada or other 3D formats using texture colors in the next several months.

Use the “save” command with “width” and/or “height” option, where the values are numbers of pixels. You would just calculate the pixels by multiplying the desired size in inches by the dpi. E.g. 3 inches wide X 300 dpi = 900 pixels wide.

Keep mouse or pointer active in recorded movies
by Sarah Piper 21 Sep '20

21 Sep '20

Hi ChimeraX team, I was wondering whether there is an option to make a mouse/cursor (or some sort of other pointer) visible when movies are recorded? E.g. When I want to point to my model or run simulations in Isolde and move atoms around, my mouse/cursor is not visible in the recording. Is it possible to keep the cursor visible in the recording, so that it becomes clear what was moved/pointed at in a movie recording? I hope the question make sense! Many thanks for all your work on this, awesome piece of software! Regards, Sarah

Loading OpenMM platform plugins
by Thomas Mulvaney 15 Sep '20

15 Sep '20

Hi, I've been having fun developing a plugin for ChimeraX and want to firstly thank everyone involved for such a great platform to build upon. I'm starting to introduce a molecular dynamics component and was excited to see that ChimeraX ships with OpenMM support. Unfortunately, the OpenMM Platform plugins (which add CPU, CUDA, OpenCL etc) functionality, do not seem to be loaded by default at least in ChimeraX 1.1 on macOS. I couldn't see any documentation about how to load these plugins, but for anyone running into this issue, the following code got things working for me: ------ import chimerax openmm_plugins_dir = os.path.join(chimerax.app_lib_dir, 'plugins') Platform.loadPluginsFromDirectory(openmm_plugins_dir) ------ Kind regards, Tom

Choosing solvent exposed residues automatically
by Mutum Yaikhomba 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Hi I am working with a very big pdb model: pdb - 6g2j. I was wondering if there is a quick way to select all residues (surface residues) that are exposed to the solvent (including those facing the membrane)? This is instead of going over each residue one by one and selecting them. Additionally, say you have selected these solvent-exposed residues and now you want to filter them based on Hydrophobicity - is there a way to filter based on the standard Kyte-Doolittle Hydrophobicity index for these residues? If there is, it would be of great help and very much appreciated. Thanks Yaikhomba

mousemode and ISOLDE
by Alexis Rohou 06 Sep '20

06 Sep '20

Hi all, Not sure whether this is a ChimeraX question, or an ISOLDE question, or a bit of both. I am using ChimeraX 1.0 (2020-06-04) and ISOLDE version ChimeraX_ISOLDE-1.0.1-cp37-cp37m-macosx_10_13_x86_64.whl. When I start ChimeraX, I get the following left mouse bindings, which I believe are default: - ctrl-left click = select - shift-ctrl-left click = select add When I just start ISOLDE via the GUI menu (no further action), this seems to clear the mousemode. Or, at least, ctrl-click does not select anymore, and shift-ctrl-click also doesn't seem to do anything. To remedy this, I issue the following commands: mousemode control left select mousemode control shift left 'select add' This restores ctrl-left to 'select' as expected, but shift-ctrl-left also triggers 'select', not 'select add'. Couple of questions: (1) Is ISOLDE intentionally overriding mousemode when it is launched? I'm 99.9% this didn't use to be the case pre-1.0... (2) How do I restore shift-ctrl-left to 'select add'? I assume I am getting the syntax wrong, but I did read the doc and thought I was following it, so I guess I need some help understanding the syntax. Cheers, Alexis

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] User-defined graphics in chimera: NMR tensor plotting
by Tom Goddard 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hi Albert, Not sure if you are talking about using a modified version that spherical Python code in Chimera or using it in ChimeraX. I'll assume ChimeraX. http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/wiki/SphericalHarmonics <http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/wiki/SphericalHarmonics> It is much easier to shift and rotate the vertices than your approach. Python numpy arrays make this very convenient. After the line of code that makes the numpy array of vertices va = array(vertices, float32) you could shift it to a new origin with just va += (32.5, 13, -24.1) Rotation is also easy. from chimerax.geometry import rotation r = rotation(axis = (0,1,0), angle = 45) va = r * va na = r * na Here I rotate the vertices and the normal vectors about 0,0,0. Then I could apply the translation after that. You might want to do a rotation given by a 3 by 3 rotation matrix and the translation in one step, like this from chimerax.geometry import Place t = Place(matrix = ((0,1,0, 32.5), (-1,0,0, 13), (0,0,1, -24.1))) t.transform_points(va, in_place = True) t.transform_vectors(na, in_place = True) Here I used a 3 by 4 matrix where the first 3 columns were the rotation and the 4th column is the translation. I'll update the example code to show this. These geometric transforms are described in the ChimeraX Python programming documentation: https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/devel/bundles/geometry/src/geometry.… As for what went wrong with you np.array([x0,y0,z0]).T approach -- that transpose operation put the vertices in a non-standard memory order -- you created a 3 by N array and then did a transpose to get an N by 3 array but numpy is smart and does not allocate a new array and instead just adjusts the strides and uses the original array. My guess is the calculate_surface_normals() code has a bug in that it does not handle non-standard orders for the vertex array. So the normals were completely wrong and that effects the lighting. In the ChimeraX Python shell (menu Tools / General / Shell) the variable "session" is the ChimeraX session.

Suppose I want to shift the center of the spherical harmonic and/or rotate it. One way to do this is to extract x,y,z from the vertices list and modify them, then put them back in the list. My first step is to switch the tuple to a list in the code (switch xyz = (r*sp*ct, r*sp*st, r*cp) to xyz = [r*sp*ct, r*sp*st, r*cp] ). Then I extract the elements, do some editing, and then put them back into a list of vertices. > > x0,y0,z0=np.array(vertices).T > #Some editing of x0,y0,z0 - although editing is not required to produce the strange effects. > vertices=np.array([[x,y,z] for x,y,z in zip(x0,y0,z0)]) > #vertices=np.array([x0,y0,z0]).T > > Finally, I need to reconstruct the vertices list. The first approach (currently uncommented) works just fine. The second approach (commented) doesn’t create any errors, but the lighting is very strange, in that there are alternating dark and light areas on the surface of the harmonic. I would have claimed that the two approaches should produce practically identical numpy arrays, but clearly that’s not the case. > > Anyway, it’s not particularly important for me, since I can work around it, but it does take some time to figure out, because one would think the latter approach should also work. > > The second question is: is it possible to get the “session” object into an interactive python session? Usually, I work interactively with python, and have a number of functions that create various scripts and input files for chimera, and then launch chimera from a shell, calling some script on startup.

Fit in Map - Overlap
by Luis José Castillo Valverde 28 Aug '20

28 Aug '20

Hi, As I understand it, the overlay resulting from the "Fit in Map" command corresponds to the sum over the fit map grid points of the product of the fit map value and the reference map value at that point, determined by trilinear interpolation. I want to calculate the percentage of overlap of two maps, it would be as simple as calculating the formula "min ((sum of the grid points of map 1), (sum of the grid points of map 2)) / (overlap obtained from the fit ) "the problem I have that I do not know how to obtain those values (" sum of the grid points of map 1 "," sum of the grid points of map 2 "); I tried to do "Fit in Map" of map 1 with map 1 and use the overlap that returns as the sum of the points of map 1 but it didn't work.

MD trajectories in ChimeraX
by David Slochower 24 Aug '20

24 Aug '20

Hi, are there any plans to implement a "metafile" interface (e.g., http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/movie/movie.html#…) for loading trajectories with ChimeraX? In particular, it would be great to be able to load `prmtop` and `nc` trajectories, even if it were available only through the command line and without a GUI. (This can be considered a follow up to this message: http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2019-December/000773.html) I'm aware of the Molecular Dynamics Viewer in the Toolshed, but that appears to be geared for multi-PDB trajectories. Thanks.

Hello, I was wondering if there is a command to automatically stack the tools (i.e. log, volume viewer) in the sidebar as TABs? For example to put in the preferences so it starts this way or to make an alias so it can be done quickly. Thanks in advance for any tips you have. Sean

Dear chimeraX users I would like to buy my first VR headset to use with ChimeraX. I am considering buying the Oculus quest but I would like to confirm that it will properly work for ChimeraX. Has anyone used it? or is there a better low-cost VR headset (preferably but not limited to all-in-one devices) that you can recommend to me?

Draw a circle
by Andrea Dallapè 18 Aug '20

18 Aug '20

Hi, I would like to highlight a hole in a protein -the exit tunnel of a ribosome, to be more specific. I tried the command shape tube in order to draw three tubes passing through three residues, but the result doesn't suit at best my need and expectations. Is possible to draw a circle, passing through three points -or residues-? Do you have any suggestions? Thank you for your attention. Have a great week end. Greetings, Andrea

Re: [chimerax-users] [Chimera-users] [External] Re: The command like volume zone in X
by Tom Goddard 14 Aug '20

14 Aug '20

Hi Fengwei, I added the "wobble" command to ChimeraX today that makes a figure 8 motion. It will be in tonight's ChimeraX builds -- nightly builds are listed at the bottom of the downloads web page. The wobble command is just a shorthand for the turn command and the turn command now has two new options: wobble that controls speed and is the number of frames for a complete figure 8, and wobbleAspect that controls the amplitude of the bobbing motion as a fraction of the side to side motion (default 0.3). The wobble command uses a default cycle of 136 frames per second which at 60 frames/second rendering is a little more than 2 seconds per figure 8. The wobble command makes the default amplitude 15 degrees. Tom > On Aug 14, 2020, at 9:37 AM, Zheng, Fengwei wrote: > > Dear Elaine, > > Got it, Thank you so much for your kind explanation!

Discrete coloring and secondary structure assignment.
by Reza Khayat 13 Aug '20

13 Aug '20

Hi, I'm trying to generate a ribbons diagram where the secondary structures are defined by user and colored by user. I'm running into a problem where half of the amino acid is assigned the secondary structure and the entire residue is assigned the color. This makes for a strange image. Attached is an image. Notice how the coloring starts before the secondary structure. Any help is appreciated.?

Limits on movies
by mailman-bounces＠cgl.ucsf.edu 13 Aug '20

13 Aug '20

From: Maria Maldonado <mmaldo(a)ucdavis.edu <mailto:mmaldo@ucdavis.edu>> Subject: Limits on movies Date: August 9, 2020 at 7:23:21 PM PDT Hi! I have a question about movies and thought you might be able to help. Is there a limit to the length of the movies other than the limit maxframes? I’ve made scripts for movies with several steps. All the motions/commands show in the ChimeraX window while it is rendering, the script gets to the end and says “movie encoded”. However, when I open the movie file, the movie is missing several frames/steps. This happens even though I increased the limit maxframes (and my movies should be shorter than 15000 to begin with). If I split the original movie into shorter chunks that works fine, but I’ll have to edit the steps together in a different programme. I was wondering if this has to do with ChimeraX, or whether maybe it could be a computer memory issue or something else outside of the programme? It seems to be worse (ie the movie file stops earlier) for larger volumes and models than for smaller ones. Thank you very much for your help! Best, Maria

chimerax amino acid sequence
by Peter Steinhagen 09 Aug '20

09 Aug '20

Hello, I am new to chimerax. For my protein of interest, there is no PDB available, thus, I chose a similar protein. However, the amino acid sequence is different. Is it possible to change the amino acid structure in chimerax? Will this change the 3D conformation? If this does not work what would be a good solution for my problem? Thanks, Peter

Hi all, I have only been able to load volume series data using the .cmap format (using a daily from this week on OS X).

Server maintenance
by Eric Pettersen 06 Aug '20

06 Aug '20

Hi all, The servers that usually host the Chimera web site and web services will be undergoing maintenance Monday and Tuesday of next week (August 10/11), but we have jury-rigged a temporary solution that should allow the web site and services to continue to function through the maintenance window. Nonetheless, do not be shocked if the site/services wind up being down on those days. Also, mail to the Chimera mailing lists and Chimera bug reports will be not be fully processed until the servers fully come back up on Wednesday. Such mail/reports will be accepted but spooled during the maintenance window, and delivered afterward. So you probably will not get any responses until Wednesday/Thursday. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Fit map in map and save result map
by Luis José Castillo Valverde 05 Aug '20

05 Aug '20

Hello, I know that the ones I am going to ask maybe a recurring question but I have not managed to solve it. I know that maps as such do not have location or rotation information, but I want to generate a new map (with a new cube I imagine) which represents the current position and rotation for a given map. I am working with "fitmap (map # 1) inmap (map # 2)" the idea is to generate the new map from the optimized map, to be able to load that new "result" map without the need to perform any other transformation. If this is possible, I wanted to know if you can give me the command list to be able to do it? I already appreciate the attention provided.

OpenGL error with nogui?
by Fabian Glaser 01 Aug '20

01 Aug '20

Dear gurus, I am trying to produce a series of figures on the fly with chimeraX, using a python script of the following format (this is only a simple demo): test.py: #!/usr/bin/env python3 import sys from chimerax.core.commands import run run(session, "open 1d66") run(session, "color red") run (session, "save fig1.png”) == This works like a charm with the gui, but without the gui it gives the following error, stops and no figure is produced, we tried both in Mac and linux. We are interest in the —nogui option: .../MacOS/ChimeraX --script "test.py 1d66" —nogui Executing: surface sel-residues enclose sel-residues Executing: transparency 0 ribbons Set transparency of 542 residues Executing: ~select Nothing selected Nothing selected Executing: save fig1.jpg Unable to save images because OpenGL rendering is not available So is this solvable? How? We tried also with the —offscreen, no luck either. Best, Fabian Fabian Glaser PhD Bioinformatics Knowledge Unit - BKU The Lorry I.

command: symmetry, option: contact
by Roberto Marabini 31 Jul '20

Dear all, In chimera I used to use the command sym #0 group i,222r contact 3 to surround an asymmetric unit cell by its neighbors. I see that, in chimerax, "sym" no longer has the option "contact" (or the alternative option "range"). Is there any way to get results similar to the ones obtained using chiera command sym #0 group i,222r contact 3 with chimerax

Cartoon and ribbon display - change atoms for nucleic acid from C5' to Phosphate
by bertrand beckert 31 Jul '20

31 Jul '20

Dear ChimeraX developper, I was wondering if in ChimeraX it is possible to change the atoms used for the cartoon/ribbon display. According to the online user manual ( https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/cartoon.html#top) for the nucleic acid the cartoon path seems to be restricted and guided by only the C5'.... could it be possible to change the C5' to the Phosphate instead? is there already a command existing ? Thanks for the nice software! Best regards Bertrand

Re: [chimerax-users] ChimeraX command line iterate through models for individual file export

Hi Austin, Of course I remember you, it was a great trip to Rocky Mountain Laboratories. Thanks for your hospitality! And I see your SARS-Cov-2 images in the media -- very nice. Here's the ChimeraX voodoo to save all your objs in one command perframe "save ~/Desktop/objs/model$1.obj model #1.$1" frames 23 It uses the perframe command that runs another command once each frame (usually used for recording an animation video). The $1 gets the frame number substituted in 1, 2, 3 and the frames tells it how many frames, in your case use 100 to get the 100 models. Here are the perframe docs https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/perframe.html <https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/perframe.html> if you need more info.

VOP cover command?
by Megan Mayer 29 Jul '20

29 Jul '20

Hi chimeraX forum, I am trying to get an electron density map (.mrc) to overlap with atomic structure (.cif) file of a small organic molecule. When I open my electron density map in ChimeraX, only one rectangle ( i am assuming one lattice piece) appears, which does not encapsulate the entire small molecule. I am thinking to use the "vop cover" command to get the density to expand to multiple lattices, but I am not sure what numbers to enter. When I try "vop cover atomBox #2" (#2 is the ID of the .cif structure), I get a "Missing or invalid 'volumes' argument: invalid density map specifier" response. Thanks in advance for any help!!

Clip surface but not atoms
by Pufall, Miles A 27 Jul '20

27 Jul '20

Hi! I’ve used Chimera for years (though not recently) and am switching to ChimeraX. I’m looking to display the ligand binding pocket with the ligand, and the tutorial you have is great. I generated this picture, which is really close to what I want. It shows the ligand, and the pocket, and I’m able to slice it with the interactive side view tool to get to this point. However, the left side of the ligand is slightly clipped. I’ve played with rotation and with moving the slice plane, but can’t find an orientation that shows the pocket so nicely (without any surface in the foreground) and not ligand clipping. My question is: is there a way to tell ChimeraX to clip the surface but not the ligand? Thanks!

Alternate locations

Hi ChimeraX team, very nice program and remote control scheme! Clear thinking, cool implementation. My question/suggestion is about alternate atom locations. ChimeraX knows about them. I load 1lcd info atoms /A:8@NE2 attribute alt_locs correctly responds: atom id /A:8@NE2 alt_locs A,B When I show /A:8@NE2 or I show /A:8 as sticks, only location A is displayed. When I retrieve atom coordinates, only location A is returned. Could you implement full handling of alternate locations (or am I doing something wrong here? I really tried a lot to find location B).

surface colouring by selected residues
by Oleksiy Kovtun 27 Jul '20

27 Jul '20

Dear ChimeraX community, I need to colour the surface by selected side chains to highlight an intermolecular contact. The command sequence: #select atoms on the buried surface. The selection works correctly: measure buriedarea #10/C:449-end withAtoms2 #9/A:449-end select true #make a surface. A new surface #10.1 is generated: surface #10/C resolution 7 #color surface yellow at selected residues. color #10 & sel yellow target s The last command does not result in surface colouring although reports "colored 1 surfaces" upon its execution. Where is a mistake in the colouring approach? I run chimeraX version 1.0 (2020-06-04) on Ubuntu 18.04. Thank you and best regards.

Bond between two sequential residues

Hello, When I hide the backbone and choose to show side chain and base any sequential residues shown have a small line between the CA's. I can select them, but not delete them or hide them as an atom or bond, only hide sel, but when the selection they are a part of is hidden and reshown they reappear. I can also assign them as a selector and hide/show them, but also as soon as I hide and reshow the selection they are a part of they reappear and the designated selector for them is gone from the list. I want to retain the side chain and base appearance but lose these lines permanently. Any help would be appreciated.
