[Chimera-users] label3d

[Eric Pettersen]

Dear Devleena,
	For now, Chimera does not have a label3d-like tool, nor is it likely 
to in the near future (though in the long term it could happen).  For 
now, you are going to have to take the neon/conic image and label it 
"by hand" in Photoshop or some such.   We do anticipate adding an 
"ilabel"-like tool soon (so that arbitrary 2D labels can be placed on 
the Chimera image), but even that won't help here since those won't be 
transmitted through to neon or conic either.
	Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
