[chimerax-users] Reasign secondary structure for back-bone trace

I'm talking about the oxygen connected to the non-α–carbon backbone carbon of every amino acid.  If it is missing, dssp will not compute secondary structure.

When I load this multi-pdb ensemble to Chimera-X I can see only back-bone traces without any secondary structure information. I've tried to use dssp command to re-assign the secondary structure but it did not change the visualization state. Would it be possible to do it in some automatic fashion via some built-in command?
