[Chimera-users] measure volume for protein subsections

[Anke Mulder]

Hi,

I have used segger to divide my reconstruction into protein monomers, and I know how to measure the volume and other attributes of the protein monomer, however, I would like to be able to measure subsections of the monomer so that I can have an idea of what the volume of protein is that, for example, is buried in the lipid bilayer, etc.  I thought that I could use clipping planes to do this, but from what I can tell the volume measurement still takes into account the volume of the entire protein.

Thanks so much.
