[Chimera-users] Fading structures/surfaces in/out

[Gustaf Olsson]

Making a movie using a CMD script I am using something like the following to fade structures in/out

    transparency 95 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 90 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 85 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 80 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 75 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 70 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 65 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 60 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 55 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 50 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 45 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 40 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 35 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 30 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 25 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 20 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 15 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 10 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 5 :17.het; wait 8
    transparency 0 :17.het; wait 8

Is it possible to use the “frames” function in transparency to achieve the same? Assuming that transparency is set to 100% and I want to fade in of course.

    transp 0,a :17.het frames 160

Best regards
