Hello, Maybe the distance was longer than what ChimeraX thinks is a bond. Anyway, if the bond is missing you can add it with the "bond" command (or if you prefer GUI, with Tools... Structure Editing... Build Structure tool, Adjust Bonds section). <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/bond.html> <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/buildstructure.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Dear ChimeraX users! I have an issue with the visualization of the small molecule obtained from the tleap module of the amber tools. First of all in vmd and pymol everything looks OK. In the ChimeraX there is no bond between atom CL of the ligand and the aromatic C atom. I've tried to change atom type for the CL: setattr :lig@CL1 atoms idatm_type CL show :lig@*
but the bond is still absent. Would it be possible to rebuild it manually? Cheers, Enrico
