Description

The volume command has a smoothLines option that is not implemented since it is not supported in modern OpenGL. The current option does nothing (no error, no effect) and should be removed from the volume command (or maybe left as a no-op but hidden from usage for backward compatibility) and removed from the documentation.

done: volume command option "smoothLines" removed from documentation

comment:2 by Tom Goddard, 4 months ago

Elaine, please also remove the "dimTransparency" option for the volume command documentation. It is another hold-over from Chimera that is not implemented.

I have hidden smoothLines and dimTransparency from the volume command usage. I left them in even though they do nothing so as not to break scripts where they may have been used.

The description of dimTransparency option of "volume" and crossrefs to it have been removed from the documentation.  There is still "dimTransparentVoxels" but I assume that should remain unless I hear otherwise.
