[Chimera-users] Working with Electron density map

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Rahman,
I have no idea how you tried to do the slicing.  If you fit the maps successfully, then they are already superimposed, right?  Then you could just make a thin slice of everything together by dragging the global clipping planes in the Side View, and only show one map at a time or both together by using the “S” (Shown) checkboxes in the Model Panel.  Both the Side View and Model Panel can be opened from the Favorites menu.

Global clipping:

Model panel:

I hope this helps,
Elaine
