[Chimera-users] COX inhibitor demo discrepancy

[simon chapman]

Hello Elaine, apologies for another email..!

I selected 'Columns' on the first occasion I followed the tutorial. It only
selects Show, Hide ,Read and Display. clicking the first two just shows
'Number' . Selecting that does nothing at all. 'Display' shows 2D
structures as expected. I get the same result every time I've tried since.
   I've left- and right-clicked all the options several times,but it seems
the energy data simply isn't available...

Got the rotate speed sorted immediately along all 3 axes, so thanks for
that.

I have also made a (shaky) demo from the instruction link you provided.

Best wishes   Simon
