Hi Ahmad,
There’s not really that many steps to it.  You just need to select the markers and then use the Color Zone tool.  There is a little more description here
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/tutorials/volumetour/volumetour.html#colorzone>

...and in the Color Zone manual page:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/colorzone/colorzone.html>

As mentioned in that page, you can also do it with the “scolor” command “zone” option.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
