[chimerax-users] Clip surface but not atoms

[Pufall, Miles A]

Hi!

I’ve used Chimera for years (though not recently) and am switching to ChimeraX.  I’m looking to display the ligand binding pocket with the ligand, and the tutorial you have is great.  I generated this picture, which is really close to what I want.  It shows the ligand, and the pocket, and I’m able to slice it with the interactive side view tool to get to this point.  However, the left side of the ligand is slightly clipped. I’ve played with rotation and with moving the slice plane, but can’t find an orientation that shows the pocket so nicely (without any surface in the foreground) and not ligand clipping.  My question is: is there a way to tell ChimeraX to clip the surface but not the ligand?

Thanks!

Miles
