[Chimera-users] Autodock Vina exhaustiveness

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Eunice,
If you are using the Autodock Vina graphical interface of Chimera, click Options: there you will see exhaustiveness choices only go up to 8.

This is a limitation of the tool, which is why we put a warning in the gray box near the top of the help page:
<https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/vina/vina.html>

As the warning ways, for higher exhaustiveness you should use Autodock Vina directly (not in Chimera).

I hope this helps,
Elaine
