There is no way to automatically select what crosses. Of course, if you know their residue numbers and/or residue names you would use the usual way to specify them directly. Elaine

Thank you very much Elaine !
Could we automatically select in Chimera-X all (residues?) lipids that cross the membrane back and forth ?
Yours sincerely

Of course you could just make a separate model that contains one frame and have them sit there without moving, but that seems like it would be misleading.

Dear Chimera-X users !
I am visualizing an MD trajectory of a biomembrane system obtained from Amber MD using the autoimage method of cpptraj. However, in this trajectory, I still observe very rapid lateral diffusion of certain lipids, which cross the entire system too quickly. Is there a way in ChimeraX to hide or suppress such motions for selected atomic groups (e.g., lipids)?
Many thanks in advance
Enrico
