Dear Elaine

We made figures using ChimeraX of the same protein. One structure with small molecule bound, one without.

The cartoon style of the same region is shown differently in these two structures. How can we make them more consistent with each other? The cartoon style width is the same.

Hi Miao,
If you just want to make current labels bigger, either

(A) menu: Actions... Label.. Set Label Height

- or -

(B) the "label" command "height" option, e.g.

label height 2

(or whatever angstrom height you want). For details, see:

Or if you want to set a preference for labels created in the future, see "label defaultHeight"
<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Frbvi.ucsf.edu%2Fchimerax%2Fdocs%2Fuser%2Fcommands%2Flabel.html%23defaultHeight&data=05%7C01%7Czhang%40chapman.edu%7Cdb227fbe283641aaecbe08dbd7287e44%7C809929af2d2545bf9837089eb9cfbd01%7C1%7C0%7C638340341143597152%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=OMC1nNqy9ywqXAdyv1Kkpl6t%2BDTNzlPP1pnNI1JlnO4%3D&reserved=0>

...or, you can do the same thing with the Preferences GUI, the Labels section:
<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Frbvi.ucsf.edu%2Fchimerax%2Fdocs%2Fuser%2Fpreferences.html%23labels&data=05%7C01%7Czhang%40chapman.edu%7Cdb227fbe283641aaecbe08dbd7287e44%7C809929af2d2545bf9837089eb9cfbd01%7C1%7C0%7C638340341143597152%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ey2EniLYdw9oSelNDM0%2Bmcf7jxJWJoe0aZcvkfs63ws%3D&reserved=0>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
