[Chimera-users] Pov-Ray functionality

[Brown, Jeffrey]

Hello,

  I like a lot about ChimeraX; however, I can’t figure out how to export to POV-RAY format. Has this functionality been removed?

  Although there is a pseudo ray trace function in Chimera X - it is impossible to add scenes like I did in this publication
https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0009406
In which I used Chimera to render all of the proteins and then moved them around and added membrane etc.
Also there is a lot more control in POV-RAY as it is code that you can’t accidentally rotate with your mouse.

Cheers,
JWB
