[Chimera-users] Electrostatic Potential

Dear Tom and Chimera users,

In ChimeraX or Chimera, is it possible to calculate the number of vertices
and their respective total charges?

I calculated the electrostatic potential surface (Coulombic) with another
program, it gave me the following results (attached in this email) and I
calculated the area in red and blue, above and below a threshold = 0.

Unfortunately, these results do not help me, because I need to obtain an
electrostatics calculations from Adaptive Poisson-Boltzmann Solver
(Calculations that I have already made for study proteins with PDB2PQR and
APBS, in interface with Chimera: .pqr and .dx files and emulated in Chimera
X)

e.g.

Now my question is:
Can I obtain these results of vertices and charges in a file from Chimera
or Chimera X (possibly .cvs, .txt, etc.), so that I can make the
corresponding calculations?

I would greatly appreciate your help

best regards,

Fer
