Hi Krish,
As per that ViewDockX help page, the Mol2 files that ViewDockX can handle come from UCSF DOCK versions 4-7, and GOLD.  MOE apparently writes its own variant of Mol2 format, which isn't surprising.  It might be easy to extend ViewDockX to handle the MOE version of Mol2, and it might not.  In either case I would need an example of a MOE Mol2 file, which could be a trivial toy example with just a few compounds in it.  If you were willing to supply such a file, I would open a feature-request ticket in our bug-tracking database with you on the recipient list so that you would be kept informed about progress on implementing ViewDockX support for MOE Mol2.

Hi Elaine,
MOE can write *.mol2 files. I used one of those. I could not use viewdockx on that model.
Wonder what was missing in that file…..

Hello Krish,
It all depends on what format the MOE docking results are, or can optionally be written, in. Further, not all formats that ChimeraX can read and display as atomic coordinates are interpreted specifically as docking results that will be listed in and interact properly with the ViewDockX interface.  Some formats are merely shown as atomic structures but do not "talk" to ViewDockX because they don't have the specific score records expected for a specific format.
 
For a list of the atomic formats that ChimeraX reads, see:
 
For a list of the types of docking results recognized as such by the ChimeraX ViewDockX, see:
 
So if the above are not included amongst the MOE output options, you would have to develop a format conversion process to generate one of them.
 
I hope this helps,
Elaine
