[chimerax-users] color zone with markers

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Hui,
The "color zone" command has a "bondPointSpacing" option to also use the coloring of bonds ( = links in marker models).

<https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/color.html#zone>

Although there is also a Color Zone tool (GUI) I don't think it includes that option specifically, so you would need to use the command.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
