Dear ChimeraX users! I am working on the improvement of the cartoon visualizations. Here are some options that I have found very cool: preset 'overall look' publication cartoon style coil thickness 0.22 set silhouettes t; set silhouetteColor firebrick; set silhouetteDepthJump 0.02 could you please suggest me something, which may further develop these ideas? In particularly I would like to improve representations of the beta-sheets making the arrow-ends more elongated and cylindrical Many thanks in advance Enrico
There isn't any option to make the arrowheads longer. However, you can make them narrower with the "arrowScale" option of "cartoon style." Also, the default cross-section of strands is rectangular but you can change it to oval with the "xsection" option of "cartoon style."
