[chimerax-users] Can you do convex hull on ChimeraX?

[Tom Goddard]

Hi Tianming,

   The SciPy package that ChimeraX includes has a convex hull function so I wrote a little code to use it and display the convex hull surfaces.

Here is a photosystem 1 shown as a solvent excluded molecular surface (6 million triangles) compared to convex hull surfaces for each protein (3000 triangles) giving it a mineral look.
