Chimera Built-in Colors

The 20 top tier colors are in the first rollover under Actions... Color. All 60 built-in colors are available in a further section marked all colors and can also be used with the commands:

• color
• bondcolor
• ribcolor
• modelcolor
• rangecolor
• tcolor

Color names and 6-digit codes representing the red, green and blue (RGB) components of a color are listed below. Each component is expressed as a 2-digit hexadecimal number (allowable characters 0123456789abcdef) ranging from 00 (0 in the decimal system) to ff (255 in the decimal system). These 6-digit codes can be appended to "#" to generate a Tk color code.

The colors are a subset of X colors, except orange and medium blue are as defined in the HTML colors list.
