Hello Tom,<br><br>Thanks for the answer... <br>It is a nice alternative. Although, it's kind of more difficult to manually translate a precise amount of nm. Is there a way, like with the "plane" option, to control precisely the width and the translation of the subregion box? Maybe through a command line, but I have found it... <br><br>Thanks again for the help,<br>Nicolas<br><br>*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*<br><blockquote style="padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 5px; border-left: #0000ff 2px solid; margin-right: 0px"><hr><b>From:</b> Tom Goddard [mailto:goddard@sonic.net]<br><b>To:</b> Nicolas Coudray [mailto:ncoudray@nysbc.org]<br><b>Cc:</b> chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu<br><b>Sent:</b> Wed, 07 Dec 2011 19:00:01 -0500<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Chimera-users] Axis vs map rotation<br><br>
Hi Nicolas,<br>
<br>
To show an oblique slice of a map you can use the volume dialog
"subregion selection" panel. The "planes" panel can only display
slices perpendicular to the volume axes as you found. There's a
video showing how to show the oblique slice on the Chimera video
tutorial web page<br>

<br>
The Chimera volume guide has a text description of the procedure.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm using the "Feature >> Plane" options of the "Volume
viewer tool" to show contour lines in planes of density maps. For
the plane, there are 3 options: "X-axis", "Y-axis", and "Z-axis".
The plane I'm interested in is none of those. I try to rotate the
maps, but the X, Y and Z axis are also rotating... Do you know if
there's a way to rotate the "axis" and the "map" independently,
please?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
Nicolas<br>
