Dear Elaine, Thank you so much for your support. I want to ask you something more, If I use Chimera in Windows I could be able to try the Workaround #2? I believe that this approach requests other systems. El jue., 5 nov. 2020 a las 12:42, Elaine Meng (<meng@cgl.ucsf.edu>) escribió:
Greetings, I changed the subject line to something descriptive.
Sorry, ChimeraX does not write DMS files.
Unfortunately, as you saw, Chimera molecular surface calculations fail on some structures. If you can't get the calculation to work in Chimera (e.g. with workaround #2 in this page): <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/surfprobs.html>
...then my only other suggestion is to get the separate open-source program "dms"... this is an older program in C: <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/Overview/software.html#dms>
I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Greetings,
Hope that you're doing well.
Currently, I'm using dock6 to develop some experiments as you understand this software needs Chimera as visualizator, however, I was tried to create a surface for a specific protein and this software generated an issue because my protein exceed the size, so I read the possible solutions and one of them is using ChimeraX, nevertheless, I downloaded ChimeraX and I was able to create the surface, however, I didn't find an option to save this surface and I didn't find and option to create a DMS file. Then I have already read your user guide to ChimeraX but I didn't find information about how to create the DMS file, or how to save the surface information in any format that Chimera would be able to open, because I found a lot of differences between "Structure editing" option in Chimera and ChimeraX, then I'm requesting your help to create the DMS file using ChimeraX or indicanting me a way to save the surface information to use it later using Chimera.
Thank you so much for your help.
Kind regards,
