[Chimera-users] to hide atoms using command lines

[Elaine Meng]

Hi CJ,
The command is ~display … you may want to take a look at the “getting started: commands” tutorial.  It shows commands for several common actions, and there are examples of using ~display:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/getting_started.html>

Also, if you look at the menu documentation, it has a lot of “see also” that mentions the commands that do the same thing.  For example, the Actions… Atoms/Bonds description says to see also commands “display” and “represent”
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/menu.html>
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/menu.html#menuactions>

Finally, you can always just look at the index of commands with short descriptions of what they do:

I hope this helps,
Elaine
