[chimerax-users] Colouring clipping plane

[GOVAERTS Cédric]

Hi ChimeraX team.

I’m trying to get an image of a protein whose surface is colored by electrostatic properties  but clipped halfway.
I would like the clipping plane to be white, not red/blue according to the electrostativ properties of the residues insides the protein.
However, I don’t’ seem to be able to do that.

-If I color everything white and then click on Molecular-Display “electrostatic”,  the clipping plane also gets the electrostatic coloring

-If I color everything white and then click on Molecular-Display “hydrophobic” or “rainbow” it works, the clipping plane remains white.

Can you help me getting the white clipping plane with electrostatic surface ?

Thanks a bunch

Cedric
