At present it is possible to normalize the map to rms, which is very handy, but it would be also convenient (for the purposes of reporting absolute threshold levels in figure legends etc) to be able to set the level as 5*rms but still check the absolute e-/Å^3 contour that this corresponds to.<br class=""><br class="">Also on a completely different matter, is there any way to access the “Zone” feature of Volume viewer from the command line? I would like to write an alias that places a dummy atom at the CoFR and displays a spherical zone of the selected map (without generating a new map using vop zone), but I can’t find the corresponding command line function.<br class=""><br class="">Cheers,<br class="">Oliver.<br class=""></blockquote><br class=""></blockquote><br class=""><br class="">_______________________________________________<br class="">Chimera-users mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:Chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu" class="">Chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu</a><br class="">http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/mailman/listinfo/chimera-users<br class=""><br class=""></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
