Hi Sasha, I guess I don’t understand what you’re describing. Do you have sequence/alignment windows open? Are they necessary? Is there some reason you can’t just close them before you do all the splitting? There is a hack you can use to prevent auto-association, but you have to do it before opening the relevant alignments/sequences. Go to “Sequences” section of the ChimeraX Preferences/Settings and change the value for "Auto-associate if fewer than this many sequences” to 1. That will prevent any auto-association from happening for any sequences/alignments that you open while the value is 1. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Dear All,
I have a session with 80 homotetramers (4 x 1400 residues). I want to split all the tetramers, align all chains and calculate RMSF for all 320 chains. I specially took precaution to disassociate all chains. Nevertheless, when I give the command
Select All split sel chains
ChimeraX starts to associate all chains with all remaining chains, which takes >8 hours. Can you please suggest how to proceed?
