Hi Eric, <br>
<br>
thank you! removing the preference file fixed it. I'll pass it
along, other users in my lab have encountered the exact same
problem!<br>

Hi Liz,
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>This
is going to sound odd, but the first thing to try is to turn
multisampling off. You do that from the Effects tab of the Side
View. If that doesn’t immediately fix it, click Save on the
Side View, quit Chimera, and start a new one. If <i class="">that</i> doesn’t
fix it, then you need to quit Chimera and then remove your
preferences file. It’s named “preferences” and is located in a
folder named “.chimera” in your home directory. If you know how
to use the Unix command line then removing it is simple: “rm
~/.chimera/preferences”. If you have to use the Finder then
it’s a little trickier but not too bad:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>1)
In the Finder’s “Go” menu choose “Go To Folder…”</div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>2)
Type in “~/.chimera”</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This should reveal the preferences file which you
can remove with normal Finder-like things.</div>

<div class="">Hi,<br class="">
<br class="">
I've been using chimera quite happily for the past couple
of years. I especially like the command line, as it makes
operations much faster to complete (once you know the
commands!)<br class="">
I've been using the command-line, in chimera, on my mac
(osx yosemite version 10.10.3) for a while now, but just
today my command-line would not display the text I'm
entering into the command-line bar. This is odd, I've
never seen this before, and I don't know what the problem
is due to. I tried restarting chimera, I tried restarting
my computer, and I tried re-installing chimera, but the
command-line prompt is the same.. it doesn't display the
text as I'm entering it.. though if I type a command, it
does execute it and it shows up in the command history..
so it looks like a problem in displaying text as it's
being entered.<br class="">
<br class="">
Has anyone else run into this problem? And how do you fix
it? I'd be so much happier if I could see what I'm typing!<br
class="">
<br class="">
thanks<br class="">
<br class="">
Liz<br class="">
