Activation of Chimera UCSF
Revision as of 11:12, 2 May 2017 by Daniel Castaño (talk | contribs)
Several tools in Dynamo include a link to send maps into Chimera UCSF. In order for these tools to be functional, Dynamo needs to know the location of Chimera.
For this, you need to write
dynamo_chimera -path myChimeraPath
inside your Matlab session. Here myChimeraPath should be the absolute path to your Chimera executable.
If you are using the standalone version, you need to set the path to Chimera before initiating the Dynamo session in your Linux shell, for instance:
export PATH=$PATH:myChimeraPath
If Dynamo finds the executable at that location, a synthetic thermosome image will open.
