[chimerax-users] making color zone transparenct

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Yashar,
I was going to say just use the transparency command, e.g.

transparency #2 50

<http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/transparency.html>

…but I see that generates an error in the current daily build.  I’ll make a ticket to report the bug.

I also tried

volume #2 transparency .5

<http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/volume.html#general>

…but that did not work after coloring by zone, nor did trying to change the color with a command (ex: volume #2 color pink) or the color well on the Volume Viewer dialog. Another ticket, presumably related to the first.

Sorry for the problems, and thanks for bringing our attention to them.
Elaine
