Hi Elaine, Is it possible to orient a unit cell along different axes in ChimeraX? I tried using ‘Unit cell’ option, but not sure if this is the correct place to do it. Thanks! -chinthaka
Hi Chinthaka, (CC to chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu ... please use that address for ChimeraX questions) Sorry, I don't understand the question. You can build the unit cell or a block of multiple unit cells with the Unit Cell tool: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/unitcell.html> The axes of the unit cell are defined in the data... it is not something that you control. Of course, you can rotate it after you build it. Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco
