[chimerax-users] Marking movies in ChimeraX

[Guillaume Gaullier]

Hi Lu,

In case this is helpful, you can also find here some example movie scripts I made: https://github.com/Guillawme/chimerax-viz <https://github.com/Guillawme/chimerax-viz>
Cheers,

It helps me a lot and I am very happy to receive your email.

Although Chimera has an "export to ChimeraX" option (menu: File... Export Scene or "export" command) it currently only covers atomic structures and representations, and does not include maps.
