[chimerax-users] How to show fib-sem tomography data as solid volume

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Edoardo,
I believe you can do this by choosing "box" display from the rightmost pulldown in the Volume Viewer dialog.  See the screenshot attached below.

Volume Viewer dialog settings:

I hope this helps,
Elaine

The data consists of a series of frames that I can convert as .mrc volume or .mrcs stack. I attach a snapshot taken from a review that illustrates (middle panel) the visualisation I would like to obtain. The medical-image panel in ChimeraX is very handy however, the “full” option shows the volume while I need to display the planes of each side to slice through them.
