[chimerax-users] Color protein by residue

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Tom,
Could you say more about what you mean about “collaborative” in terms of VR, what program(s) you used, how you controlled the display (e.g. typed commands to color and show/hide or something else like menus in the VR or voice control) or and whether you were looking at atomic details of proteins or just overall structures?  (If you don’t want to send that info to the whole list, can just e-mail me individually.)

For the most part, what we’ve done with ChimeraX is described  here:

Best,
Elaine

> Wow, your .cxc file works perfectly. Thanks for showing me how to do this, great help.

> On the VR stuff, yes, I’ve been using the VR on/off with our HTC Vive system. Works great if you keep the lighting effect simple.  It is why I was suggesting your team take a look at what is possible in an immersive collaboration VR environment.  I look forward to hearing from someone on your team.
