[chimerax-users] Trouble displaying missing structure dashed lines in cartoon mode

[Jonathan Jih]

Hello ChimeraX team,

I'm having quite a bit of trouble displaying missing structure dashed lines
when my models are shown in cartoon mode. This is despite the "missing
structure" sub-model box being ticked in the model panel.

I recall finding a workaround for this nearly a year ago on ChimeraX 1.3,
but I cannot for the life of me remember how I did so (now using ChimeraX
1.5). Interestingly, old sessions that I saved in 1.3 and 1.4 with whatever
workaround I applied back then display the missing structure dashed lines
properly in 1.5. However, opening the exact same pdb files from those older
sessions in 1.5 yields no dashed lines in cartoon mode. Full atom mode
appears fine.

I also found this thread (
https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2022-February/003273.html),
which seems to indicate the issue has been fixed, so not sure if I'm just
doing something wrong?

My OS is Windows 11 if that matters. Thanks in advance for the help!

Jonathan
