15979	Slight bug in ChimeraX	spipaon@…	Eric Pettersen	"{{{
Hello!!

My name is Sergio Pipaón, from the National Center for Biotechnology in Madrid. I wanted to report a couple of -what I believe are- bugs:

1) I hate the depthCue to visualize my structures, so I usually run: lighting depthCue false in my sessions. However, for some reason, this is not stored in the session info, and you have to run it again every time you close and open your session.

2) The commands that you can introduce in the ’Startup’ section of the preferences seem to not work in some cases (I am referring to the ‘Execute these commands at startup’ text box). The aliases work fine, but I also have written the following:

graphics silhouettes true
lighting soft
lighting shadows true
lighting depthCue false
~cofr

And these do not seem to run. Definitely not the lighting depthCue false.

Extra: I would be cool to have a button in ‘Graphics’ to easily change the depthCue from to true to false.

Am I obsessed with the depthCue? Maybe, but I hope that this is valuable feedback.

I am currently running ChimeraX-1.8-rc2024.05.10.

Thank you guys!!

Sergio.
