Hi Elanie, I have an atomic model fitted into the map. I was looking for instructions on improving the mesh's representation with the docked atomic model. Thank you. That was very helpful.

However, we have several example images along with the command scripts that were used to generate them, including at least two images that are surfaces with structures inside: <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/gallery.html_... [rbvi[.]ucsf[.]edu]> ... and numerous multi-step tutorials, including <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/tutorials.htm... [rbvi[.]ucsf[.]edu]> ...intro to cryoEM maps + structures <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/data/stanford...

[rbvi[.]ucsf[.]edu]> In ChimeraX, generally what you see is what you get in the image, so you can just try coloring, lighting and style commands (many of which you can run simply by clicking icons in the toolbar, or using the Actions menu) until you like what you see.

Do you have a tutorial for ChimeraX generating publication quality surface and mesh maps with a docked model, please?
Thanks
