But I bet you are not on Mac, and the surface calculation gave a different result that led to the error. I'd like to see a bug report so I can fix this.

There is a small opening through the funnel, so I'm not sure whether it's an artifact or the actual shape of the pocket. This general process would be expected to make a better-looking figure for pockets with fewer openings.</div><div><br></div><div>This pocket could alternatively be considered one large pocket containing both the SAG and FAD. For example, in a separate Chimera session I tried:</div><div><br></div><div>open castp:2v5z</div><div><br></div><div>which reports the two largest pockets as the SAG/FAD pockets of the A and B chains, respectively. If you are using the "measure contactArea" approach to get the appearance of different inside and outside pocket colors as shown in the image gallery figure, it could be done for this collective pocket with "split atoms :sag,fad" (well, assuming you didn't get that mysterious error again!).
