[Chimera-users] color spill

[Yadong Yu]

Hi there,

I have a color spill problem when drawing a few figures of a hexamer. The
coordinates of 6 protomers were saved into a PDB file. I wanted to color
chain A red and the rest gray, so I selected chain A and colored it with
red. The red color strangely spilled to an N-terminal segment of the next
chain. I think there is some problem with the format of my PDB file, but
don't know exactly what is wrong. Here's the end of A and begin of B where
spill happend:
