[Chimera-users] render several models by attribute on an absolute scale

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Eric,
	I am aware of this limitation in the interface and intend to remedy  
it.  Until then, you can instead use the "rangecolor" command to make  
your color range span any set of values.  "help rangecolor" in the  
command line will bring up the documentation for the rangecolor command.
