Subject: [chimerax-users] button for next/previous volume?

Hi,

I frequently encounter the issue in “old” chimera where I have a bunch of different maps and I want to switch between them one by one, to better perceive differences or look at them in concert with another model. This is kind of tedious using the volume viewer, especially when many volumes are loaded concurrently

Would it be possible to add next/previous volume buttons as shortcuts for this? I would envision this as follows:

If multiple volumes are currently displayed, display the one with the lowest #ID and undisplay the rest.

If a single volume is displayed, hide it and display the one with the next or previous ID (in a circular fashion, such that the next from the highest ID is the first ID.

I have similar shortcuts in Coot which I use all the time and find very helpful for this purpose.

Cheers
