Hi Elaine and Tom, I actually have a related question on marker files. I tried to color my density by “color zone #2 near #4 distance 70”, for example. However, it seems that I can only have one marker file colored (they are mutually exclusive). For example, if I want to color area around another model by “color zone #2 near #5”, the coloring done by the previous command near #4 will disappear.

Hi Shiqing,
I added a menu to the Marker Placement panel to choose which marker set is used when adding markers with the mouse. Also the "New" button will make a new marker set. These improvements will be in tonight's ChimeraX builds.

Hi Shiqing, In your example command, #5 is telling it to add to marker model #5. If there is a different marker set it would have a different model number. So if you are adding the marker with a command, you can control it directly by the model number in that command. However, the example command you gave isn't quite right, maybe you meant:
marker #5 position 1,1,1 radius 100
"marker" command details: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/marker.html>
You are probably talking about adding the marker with the mouse, however. In that case, you are right: I don't see a way to control which marker model is used. Maybe we did not plan for people to have multiple marker models. So maybe this is a type of control that can be added in the future.

Hi!
I’m trying to have multiple marker files because I would like them to have different radius and coloring distance. I figured out that I can create new marker files by “marker #5 1,1,1 radius 100”, for example. However, if I add new markers, the new marker always goes to the first marker file, instead of the selected marker file that I want. Any help is really appreciated!
Best, Shiqing
