Hello Alexis, It works for me, although does not mention planes specifically, but lumps them as "nonatomic models": <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/atomspec.html#othermodels> "Nonatomic models such as nonmolecular surfaces or maps (volume models) can be specified in a more limited set of ways, namely: • hierarchical specifiers – model number • built-in classifications – sel (the current selection, which could include nonatomic models)" Examples: open 2gbp define plane ligand color #1.2 red (or if you want to select it by model number:) select #1.2 (or you can select in the graphics window with Ctrl-click, then refer to it as "sel") color sel cyan I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hello,
I'm playing around with the define axis command, and noticed that in the documentation the link to "plane-spec" does not lead to anything that defines how to specify a plane (help:user/commands/atomspec.html#othermodels). Or at least, I can't see it. The link to "point-spec" does take me to an informative page (help:user/commands/pointspec.html#point).
Is the syntax for specifying a plane defined elsewhere?
This is with 1.6.1.
