[chimerax-users] Issue with loading large trajectory topology and coordinate file

[Shubham Devesh Ramgoolam]

Hi all,
I hope you are doing well.

I have a PSF file of size 62 MB and a DCD coordinate file of size 423 MB that I am trying to load in chimeraX. However, chimeraX remains unresponsive during the loading process.

As such, I tried loading a subset of the coordinate file using start stop step option. However, this did not fix the issue. This is an example of the command I used: open myfile.psf coords file.dcd start 1 stop 10 step 2

Is there an alternative approach I could use?

(I don’t know if this is relevant or not but whenever I closed and re-opened chimeraX after it became unresponsive, it did not ask me to send a bug report.)

UCSF ChimeraX version: 1.5.dev202206290845 (2022-06-29)
OS: Windows 10
