[chimerax-users] Tubes

[Tom Goddard]

Hi Martin,

  That is odd, I didn’t know the helix cylinder diameters varied in ChimeraX.  I don’t know the algorithm or how to change the diameter.  Maybe Conrad (who wrote the code) or Elaine will know.  There is a chimerax-users at cgl.ucsf.edu <mailto:chimerax-users at cgl.ucsf.edu> mailing list that you can ask such questions on.

	Tom
