[Chimera-users] high quality surface figure

[Elaine Meng]

Hello Liuqing Chen,
Your image looks like “ambient occlusion” lighting, which is in the ChimeraX program but not in Chimera.

See for example the ChimeraX images “Struts for 3D Printing” and “Ambient Occlusion Molecular Surfaces":

ChimeraX is our newer program under development.  It is separate from Chimera, but also free for noncommercial use:

I hope this helps,
Elaine
