[Chimera-users] Center of segmentation regions

[Tom Goddard]

Hi Tyler,

   The Chimera Segger segmentation tool currently doesn't report the 
geometric center of segmentation regions or the principal axes.  I've 
attached a Python script that will do that.  Select the regions in 
Chimera then open the script (File / Open).  The results will appear in 
the reply log (menu Favorites / Reply Log).  The results are in physical 
coordinates (taking account of volume grid spacing), not grid index units.
