Dear ChimeraX team,

It seems that ChimeraX (tested version 1.6.1) does not yet support MRC data mode 12, corresponding to half-precision floating point (float16). This data mode is now supported in RELION-4 and IMOD, and is interesting to save storage in cryo-ET and subtomogram averaging workflows.

Would it be possible to implement support for reading and writing this MRC data mode in ChimeraX?

Thank you!

Best wishes,
