[chimerax-users] Movie clipping planes in chimera x

Hi,
I’m trying to make a movie where I highlight different parts of a large complex.  For one scene, I’m trying to interpolate between a zoomed out view of the whole complex (view p1), and then a zoomed in view of an interface (view p2), which shows a series of interactions.
What I want is a smooth transition of both the view and clipping plane from p1 to p2.  However, when I give the command:

view p1 p2 100

it interpolates the two positions/zooms fine, in 100 frames, but then after the movement adjusts the clipping plane all at once.  Is there a way to have the plane adjusted smoothly during transition between p1 and p2?
I’ve also tried fly, but this disregards clipping planes altogether.  Views are saved with

view name  p1
view name  p2

Thanks in advance,
Greg
