Hi Nadun, Sure, you can put as many value,color pairs in the command as you want. The example you may be referring to just gives two pairs: <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/data/nanobody-feb2021/chemshift.html> ...with command: color byattribute csp palette 0,lightgray:0.1,green noValueColor skyblue However, you could just specify more value,color pairs in the palette, for example: color byattribute csp palette 0,skyblue:0.025,green:0.05,yellow:0.075,orange:0.1,red noValueColor gray This is explained in the command help: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#byattribute> ...specifically the palette options: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#palette-options> You can see lots of color names here, or use command "color list" to show them in the Log. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/colornames.html#builtin> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi admin, I am trying to color the protein surface based on the chemical shift perturbations. As mentioned in the example published on March 15th, 2021, I was able to color the surface. However, I needed to add 6 levels, and I failed to do so. It was possible to define the levels and colors in chimera but I failed to do so in chimerax. Is there a way to solve this? Thank you
Nadun
