Dear all, I found a dirty workaround for my case. I have the commands in a list and execute them like this: chimerax --nogui --cmd '{";".join(commands)}' --exit And this is not functional. But writing the commands to a cxc file, and executing this, will give the correct values: with open("tmp.cxc", "w") as f: f.write("\n".join(commands)) chimerax --nogui tmp.cxc --exit So somehow the newline after level change is important?!

I have an issue with the volume measure tool. I would like to measure the volume at different thresholds. Using the gui mode, I can type the following: volume #1 level 1 measure volume #1 LOG: Enclosed volume for surface (#1.1) = 4.012e+06 volume #1 level 2 measure volume #1 LOG: Enclosed volume for surface (#1.1) = 2.144e+06 So this is functional in principle. But I would like to run this in no gui mode, so the commands are ";" seperated. But, even in gui mode, I got the following: (threshold was set to 1 before executing) volume #1 level 1; measure volume #1 LOG: Enclosed volume for surface (#1.1) = 4.012e+06 volume #1 level 2; measure volume #1 LOG: Enclosed volume for surface (#1.1) = 4.012e+06 So the threshold level is not applied, prior to the measurement of the volume. And this is the same in the no-gui mode. I would like to check the volume at 5 different levels, but I got always the same value when executing: "/usr/libexec/UCSF-ChimeraX-daily/bin/ChimeraX --nogui --cmd 'open cryosparc_P42_J241_002_volume_map_sharp.mrc; volume #1 level 0.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 0.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 0.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 1.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2.5; measure volume #1.1; volume #1 level 2.5; measure volume #1.1' --exit" Is there any command, that the threshold level is somehow applied, and the measure volume is executed correctly? The problem is present in UCSF ChimeraX version: 1.4.dev202202240543 and UCSF ChimeraX version: 1.5.dev202207221833 Best Christian _______________________________________________ ChimeraX-users mailing list ChimeraX-users@cgl.ucsf.edu Manage subscription: https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/mailman/listinfo/chimerax-users
