[chimerax-users] Copy/combine function in ChimeraX

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Ahmad,
There is no copy/combine function in ChimeraX yet.  Possibilities are to save a ChimeraX session file, or to save the model to a file(e.g. to PDB if it is an atomic model) and then open that file if you want another copy of the model open at the same time.  That would not automatically have the same display settings, however.  Of course if you did not change the model since opening the original file, you could also open the original file again without saving a new one.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
