[chimerax-users] Next/previous buttons?

[Oliver Clarke]

I've played with this a bit now Tom and I still think the Chimera implementation is superior for some use cases, as it is more flexible - it is easy to remove or add volumes or models to the series "on the fly", whereas in ChimeraX this needs to be done when creating the series (unless I am missing something which is entirely possible!). 

It would be great to have at some point an implementation of a "default" model/volume series as exists in Chimera, where one can click next/prev or have an option to temporarily add/remove each model from the series.

Cheers
Oli
