Hi Sayan, ChimeraX has both a "Surface Color" tool with the radial coloring option (color by "radius") and the command "color radial". <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/surfacecolor.html> <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#distance> Surface Color was added in March 2021, so you would need ChimeraX 1.2 or newer. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if there is any way to color the electron density map by radius(something similar to the surface color feature on Chimera) in ChimeraX. I'm trying to color the map of a virus from the center to the outside of the capsid proteins using a series of color range based on its radius from the center. Is this feature available in ChimeraX? Any leads will be helpful. Thanks, Sayan.
