[Chimera-users] Surfaces

[Tom Goddard]

Hi Dave,

  Prior to Chimera version 1.2429 (July 21, 2007) only the single 
component MSMS surface was calculated.  In 1.2429 and later the default 
became to compute all surface components which led to more frequent 
failures.

  In Chimera version 1.2500 (March 18, 2008) we made surface calculation 
call a separate program so that crashes would not crash Chimera.  And in 
Chimera version 1.2501 (March 26, 2008) we made it fall back to single 
component surface calculation if computing all components fails -- in 
this case a warning dialog appears.
