Hi, I need to record a movie of a modified volume morph focused on a small part of much larger structure. Is it possible to just play an existing morph with a command? I can generate the morph, volume zone to a reference atomic model, and make it transparent to visualize the features I'm interested in, but how can I record the movie after accomplishing these steps? Incorporating the volume morph command in a movie-making script regenerates the original morph without zoning our transparency. Thanks! James

Hi James, If you make a volume morph from maps #2 and #3 to produce morph map #4 volume morph #2,3 and you show only part of the surface using surface zone and make it transparent volume zone #4 near #1/A range 8 transparency #4 50 then to replay it use vol morph #2,3 model #4 This will keep the zone but it replaces the color and transparency. To not change color and transparency add another option vol morph #2,3 model #4 interpolatecolors false Also these replays make a new slider gui panel. To avoid that add the "slider false" option vol morph #2,3 model #4 interpolatecolors false slider false Documentation is here https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/volume.html#morph Tom
