Hi Michal, Since this is a ChimeraX question I'm putting it on chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu -- otherwise the Chimera users will be confused! In the future you may want to use that address for ChimeraX questions. If I remember correctly, "vseries" re-renders the surfaces at the time of playback, unless you specify storing more of them with the "cacheFrames" option -- so try using "vseries" with "cacheFrames 20": <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/vseries.html> See previous answer to a similar question: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2022-February/003271.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi everyone, I have 20 maps (from 3D variability analysis) that I open as series in chimeraX. I’m coloring the map series using the command “color zone #X near #X distance X” (coloring the map according to pdb model). Next I’m trying to make a movie of this map series while retaining the map colors. For some reason when the morph/ vseries starts to run the colors disappear. Can someone help me to solve this problem? What are the commands that I should write? Thanks, Michal
