[chimerax-users] Exporting image in 300 DPI

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Ahmed,
Currently the saving dialog does not show many options, but the “save” command includes all of these controls.  Use the “save” command with “width” and/or “height” option, where the values are numbers of pixels. You would just calculate the pixels by multiplying the desired size in inches by the dpi. E.g. 3 inches wide X 300 dpi = 900 pixels wide.

See:

I hope this helps,
Elaine
