Hi Elaine,

this would very very useful. To make sure I get it right, would a script like this work:

#flip-maps.cxc
open foreach /My-Path/*.mrc
volume flip
save /My-Path/*-flipped.mrc

thanks.
Vincent

Hi Rayaees,
You could have used a ChimeraX command script (.cxc) and opened that .cxc file with the "foreach" option of "open" to open each input map file individually, then flip with "volume flip", then save the result with "save", then do the next one, etc.

See the option explained here:
<https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/open.html#forEachFile>

However, since you already have all of them open and flipped, I can't think of any simple way to do it.

Maybe you could start over and try the foreach way instead?  But it's up to you...

Also to be safe I would strongly recommend against saving them all to the same name as the input file, in case something goes wrong.  You don't want to lose all your original data by overwriting it with a mistake (e.g. blank files).

Best,
Elaine

Hi,
I volume flipped 20 different models (#1 to #20) and now I want to save all the 20 flipped maps as .mrc with the same name as before and add flip in their names. How could I modify the save command line to do that?

Best
