6981	Show clip caps on atoms and ribbons	Tom Goddard	Tom Goddard	"Zheng Ruan asked about showing clip caps on ribbon helix tubes.

Currently we don't cap these because the appearance is bad due to limitation of our clip cap code.

Dear ChimeraX users,

I'm curious to know if there is a way to have the helix tube filled
when after using the clip command? I know that the clip plane of
surface representation can achieve this as found in this example
(https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/feature_highlights/pmc.png).
However, I'm not able to make it when I display my structure in
cartoon cylinder representation. I attached an example image that I
made.

Thank you for your input.

Best,
Zheng"	enhancement	assigned	moderate		Graphics				Elaine Meng Eric Pettersen			zruan1991@gmail.com	all	ChimeraX
