Subject: [Chimera-users] Questions in ChimeraX comparing with Chimera

Dear Chimera users, 

I have been recently transferring to ChimeraX from the conventional Chimera and I am currently struggling with two features existing in Chimera but not in ChimeraX. 

How could I combine two or several different ChimeraX files? I have been doing in Chimera as I was opening new chimera files by ""Files...Open..."", this is a window pop-up as the following and if I click ""No"", the new Chimera will be added to the cold Chimera as the old one was not closed. However, when I performed the similar operation in ChimeraX, there is no such window and the new ChimeraX would REPLACE the old one. I wonder if there is a way (probably using command to open? but I did not find the correct open options.) to open the new ChimeraX without closing the old one?
