Hi,
I was wondering if there is a command line in chimeraX to hide a region of the map. To be more specific if I have to hide map around a model #1 chain A, how could I do that? Also, using the same case how do I set a transparency of 50% for the map around the chainA model #1? Actually, I want to make a movie of the vseries where I need to hide/delete/transparent some portion of the map to show the internal details of the map while playing the vseries. Any suggestions are welcome.
