Dear ChimeraX team, I’m currently trying to open a volume and play a volume series in ChimeraX. According to the website (https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/trajectories.html), opening a volume series should work like this: “Volume data can be opened as a series with open, employing filename wildcard symbols or globbing as needed to specify multiple files in a single command”. This seems simple enough, I indeed can open the volumes as a group. However, when I then try to play the series using: vseries play #1 direction oscillate loop true, I get the error: no volume series specified. Could you explain to me how I can get my group of volumes recognized as a volume series? The vseries page (https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/vseries.html) is very elaborate, but I cannot find alternative options of opening my volumes as a series. I know how to do things in regular Chimera, but would prefer to stick with ChimeraX because I make all my other figures with it. Thank you very much in advance!!
