1073	ChimeraX bug | No such file or directory | Desktop/	ramiro.magno@…	Tom Goddard	"{{{
Hi

First time trying ChimeraX here, version 0.5, on Linux.

It seems ChimeraX presumes that a Desktop/ directory exists when attempting
to record a spin movie. I do not have a Directory/ folder (intentionally).

This leads to an error:

Opened mmCIF data containing 3192 atoms and 3121 bonds

Many thanks!
