[Chimera-users] Problem Using Transparency Command in Chimera

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Josh,
Most likely you just need to get a newer version of Chimera.  The transparency command was added in version 1.7, Jan 2013.  It would also be available in later versions (1.8 etc.).
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/relnotes/1.7.html>

If you use the Help menu in Chimera the documentation should match your downloaded software, but documentation on the Web might be for a different version of Chimera than what you downloaded.  

I hope this helps,
Elaine

I am using chimera to make a movie a a protein complex interaction and I'm having trouble with the transparency command.  When I type in just the command into chimera it doesn't even recognize it as a command.  surftransp works but transp or transparency aren't recognized.  Is there a bug fix I can run for this?
