[chimerax-users] Re: Equivalents to sop split & mask?

Hi Oli, For your second question, there is a "volume mask" command: https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/volume.html#mask Off to a meeting now, so haven't investigated the first part of the question yet...

Hi,

Is there a direct equivalent to the command “sop split” in ChimeraX? In the documentation for the “surface” command, I can see that there is an option to split by color, but not to split into individually selectable blobs.

We use this a lot in Chimera, as a quick way to make a starting point for a mask to use in refinement, so it would be great to have in ChimeraX too.

Also, is there an equivalent to the “mask” command from Chimera? I can’t seem to find it but perhaps it has a different name?

Cheers Oli
