[chimerax-users] publication preset

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Dmitry,
It's almost the same as in Chimera.  ChimeraX menu: Presets... Overall Look... Publication, or command:

preset pub

The result is also about the same as in Chimera.  However, ChimeraX has all kinds of additional features like fancier lighting and curved-cylinder (tube) helices, so you may also want to try the different lighting icons in the Toolbar, other options in the Presets menu (e.g. those under Presets... Cartoons/Nucleotides...) etc.

All the presets are described here, and you can also create your own custom presets:

I hope this helps,
Elaine
