nucleotides command not found in chimerax

Hi ChimeraX users, I am dabbling around in ChimeraX, and it seems that the documentation doesn't quite match up with the commands that are available. For example, this command: nucleotides https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/nucleotides.html would be useful, but when I enter this into the command line it says "unknown command" I downloaded the nightly chimerax build for mac, so it can't be a problem with an out of date version. Is this command not currently implemented? and if not, how many commands are listed in the documentation that aren't implemented? Best Liz

Hi Liz, The link you sent is to the Chimera documentation, not ChimeraX. They are two different programs. The ChimeraX documentation is included with your download (menu: Help… User Guide) or see the development copy on our website: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/index.html> However, I have no idea what’s going on with what you entered, because there IS a nucleotides command in recent versions of ChimeraX, with syntax slightly different than in Chimera. <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/nucleotides.html> In the current daily build of ChimeraX, there are also a few nucleotides variants in the Preset menu, and in the Toolbar, a whole tab of icons for nucleotide display styles. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

sorry yeah, I realized that I sent the link to the chimera documentation. No, I usually check to make sure it's the ChimeraX logo in the upper right hand corner, this is the right url: https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/nucleotides.html I must have inadvertently installed a previous version of chimerax, because I just downloaded the daily build again and it looks like it has a lot more features. thanks!
