Hi Tianming,

The SciPy package that ChimeraX includes has a convex hull function so I wrote a little code to use it and display the convex hull surfaces.

https://rbvi.github.io/chimerax-recipes/convex_hull/convex_hull.html

Here is a photosystem 1 shown as a solvent excluded molecular surface (6 million triangles) compared to convex hull surfaces for each protein (3000 triangles) giving it a mineral look.

Hi dear ChimeraX-Users and developers,

Is ChimeraX available for drawing the convex hull of protein structures?

Best,
Tianming
