Hi Kotaro, My understanding is that: (1) a volume morph is different than a volume series, and there is no option to show a slider control for a volume morph (2) "volume morph" is the command to show the volume morphing (3) you can record it by putting a "movie record" command before the "volume morph" command, and a "movie encode" command after it. For example, you could put commands something like the following in a plain-text file named myscript.cxc, and then open myscript.cxc in ChimeraX to execute it: movie record volume morph #1-10 playStep 0.01 frames 100; wait 100 movie stop movie encode mymovie.mp4 See explanation of options of the "volume morph" command: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/volume.html#morph> Options of the "movie" command: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/movie.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

I'm really a novice to chimerax, so please forgive me to ask two more questions...
I have created a volume morph by 'volume morph #1-10', and after that,
* How to open a morph control window (with a slider bar, play/stop/... buttons, etc.) * How to create a movie file from the morph (a single run of the morph)
It is difficult for me to find out how in the document https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/movies.html
Thank you
