Hi,
I am trying to use Chimera X to display an amino acid with dual side chain conformations (PDB code: 7a5v) together with its cryoEM density map (EMDataResource: EMD-11657).
For example, Tyr 66 have two side chain conformations, however using the command below, it only showed one conformation.
resfit /a:66 map #1 (a very nice command, by the way)

I then used Chimera 1.15 to view the PDB coordinate, and it showed two side chain conformations for Tyr66 (as I saw in PyMol); on the other hand, Chimera X only shows a single conformation.
Is there any way to display the two alternative conformations using Chimera X?

Thanks a lot for your time, and possible help!

Best wishes,

Winston
