Elaine As usual you have provided a clear explanation that resolves my current lack of understanding of the operations of ChimeraX. I will certainly study what you sent to me and see how I make out. Thank you very much.

Firstly, we do intend to have menus, they just haven’t been added yet. Realize that it took over a decade to build up the rich menu interface in Chimera! ChimeraX is still in alpha releases. Secondly, the icon toolbars across the top provide several common functions each in a single click. When you click them, the corresponding command is shown in the Log, which may help people learn the commands. Just be careful not to click them when you don’t want to execute some function! The molecule display and graphics icons are explained in the following help pages: <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/moldisplay.html> <http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/graphics.html> Best, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.
