[Chimera-users] A script for deleting discontinuous/disconnected parts of a map, similar to the hide dust function in Chimera

[CHI-MIN HO]

Hello Chimera Team,

I would like to write a script that can automatically remove smaller blobs
(disconnected parts) of a volume, exactly likely how the hide dust function
works in chimera, except I want it to be automated. I would like a script
that can automatically determine a good threshold, then rank the
parts/volumes in the box by size, and then remove all but the largest
volume, and save the result as a new volume.

Do you have any existing code or sample code that accomplishes anything
like this that you could point me toward? Or if not, would you be able to
advise me as to the best way to achieve this?

Thank you in advance!
Best wishes,
~Mimi
