[Chimera-users] question on visualization

[Elaine Meng]

There’s also a “volume” command “capFaces” option, e.g.

volume #3 capFaces false

In EMAN2, the threshold less than 0 also works. I'm not sure whether the defining of level is the same as the threshold in EMAN2. Or is there any other way to show the density of a map as in EMAN2 with threshold less than 0?
