[chimerax-users] crossfade warps image when transitioning

Hi all

OK I have a real problem this time (not a silly problem on my end). I'm
trying to make movies in chimerax, and I used to be able to use the
crossfade function in Chimera to smoothly interpolate two images to change
the scene.

However, in ChimeraX, when I use the crossfade function it either warps the
first image or it somehow interpolates a zoomed in view of the lower left
corner of the first image into the second, which makes for a jarring
transition.  Closing and re-opening ChimeraX seems to change the behavior,
but I still can't get a smooth transition between image 1 and image 2. Any
idea how to fix this? I thought perhaps setting the view size before
starting to record the movie would help, but that doesn't seem to work.

Thanks a bunch.

Best
Liz
