[Chimera-users] Fwd: request for stick and ball size in Atoms/Bonds menu

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Bala,
Here are the ways you can change the model ballscale and stickscale now:

(a) setattr command, for example:

setattr m stickScale 1.8 #1
setattr m ballScale 0.4

<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/setattr.html>

(b) molecule model attributes panel.  Open Model Panel, choose model(s) on left side, choose "attributes..." on the right side.   Also, by default, just double-clicking the model name on the left side of the Model Panel will open its attributes panel.

I hope this helps,
Elaine

I would like to request you for the addition the Stick and Ball size settings in the Atoms/Bonds menu. Because when i change the stick/Ball size from preference-New molecules option. I am not able to see the change for the molecule presently loaded in Chimera. It would be of great help to have this option in Atoms/Bonds menu itself.
