Hi Dmitry, As far as I know, there isn't a command to do it directly. Instead you would need to adjust threshold to reach the target volume as reported by the Measure Volume and Area tool (or perhaps Measure and Color Blobs). The Measure Volume and Area tool will continuously report the volume as you interactively drag the threshold in the Volume Viewer. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/measurevolume.html> <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/measureblobs.html> I also don't know the conversion factor between volume and weight, but others on this list may be able to advise if you don't already know the formula.

Dear colleagues, Is there a tool in chimeraX that can set the correct volume threshold level when the Molecular weight of the molecule is known? Thank you! Kind regards, Dmitry
