[Chimera-users] custom presets not appearing

[Healey, Joe]

Hi Chimera Team,


I've defined a custom preset (implemented in both python and 'chimera language'), and I've placed in a folder which I have directed the custom preset dialogue to.


E.g, in /Users/joehealey/Documents/Warwick/PhD/Structural_Work/Scripts/Presets/


I have the following script (chimera implemented one):


# Goodsell.cmd

#############################################################
# #
#  Chimera syntax commands for use as a preset. Sets the   #
#  depiction in the style of David Goodsell. #
#  (The PDB Molecule-of-the-Month style). #
# #
#############################################################

# Create lower resolution surface models:
sym surfaces all resolution 2

# Hide dashed bonds that may appear though the surface
setattr g display false

# Apply silhouette edging and colouring
set silhouetteWidth 3.5
set silhouetteColor black
set silhouette

# Set depth cueing depth and colour

set dcColor black
set dcStart 0.5
set dcEnd 1.5

# Set background transparency
set bgTransparency

# Set lighting mode for flat rendering
lighting mode ambient

# Hide ribbons
~ribbon

# Set surface colour
color red ,s

# Make sure molecule is in focus
focus


However, as per the documentation ( http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/preferences.html#Presets ) the preset doesn't appear in the presets menu.


I can execute the script as normal with exec, and it works and has the desired effect, but I'd like it to be in the preset menu if possible?

I suspect I'm missing something?

Thanks,


Joe Healey
