[Chimera-users] Regarding problem 'During selection from the graphics window (picking)'

Without knowing more about your computer, the most likely problem is 
that your graphics driver is too old.  However, we have been seeing 
problems with Chimera and the recent Radeon Vega graphics drivers, so in 
some cases, the graphics driver could be too new :-(.  In your case, 
however, I'd wager that it is too old.  If you have a laptop, the first 
thing to try is getting a newer driver from the laptop vendor's web 
site.  If you don't have a laptop, or the vendor's driver still doesn't 
work, you should get a newer driver directly from the graphics card/chip 
manufacturer. Nowadays, that would be either, 
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/, https://www.amd.com/en/support, or 
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx.
