[Chimera-users] Question regarding 3D surface coordinates

[Guirguis, Christopher Amin]

Dr. Meant,

That is wonderful. Thank you for your help. May I ask what the scope of usage is for this software? In regards to copyright and such, am I allowed to use the models I make in a mobile app for iPhone?

Best,

Chris Guirguis
