warning | Your computer has Intel graphics driver 7263 with a known bug that causes all Qt user interface panels to be blank. ChimeraX can partially fix this but may make some panel titlebars and edges black. Hopefully newer Intel graphics drivers will fix this.

Reported by Xavier Blanchet

[Tom Goddard]

I don't see any error in the ChimeraX Log for this bug report. It shows the movie was successfully saved to the Admin desktop

movie encode C:\Users\Admin/Desktop\movie2.mp4

Movie saved to C:\Users\Admin/Desktop\movie2.mp4

What do you mean "The spin movie button does not work."? Does the movie not appear on the desktop? Or is it blank? Or does it not play?

[Xavier.Blanchet@…]

You are right. The movie was saved properly. I didn't see it at first.
However, I don't know how to make animations like in the previous version of ChimeraX

[Tom Goddard]

Our older program Chimera had an animation tool but that does not exist in ChimeraX. We plan to implement it in ChimeraX some day but have not gotten to it. In both Chimera and ChimeraX you can record animations using command scripts. There are various tutorials on how to make movies using command scripts online if you search for chimerax movie making.
