Since Jalview 2.8.2, <a href="http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/">Chimera</a>
- (http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/) has been integrated into Jalview
- for interactively viewing structures opened by entries in the <strong>"Structure"</strong>
- submenu in the <a href="../menus/popupMenu.html">sequence id
- pop-up menu</a> (if you can't see this, then you need to <a

- >associate a PDB structure</a> with the sequence). Chimera is
- available from the Jalview desktop, provided Chimera has been
- separately installed.

+ structures opened via the <a href="structurechooser.html"><strong>"View

You can set a default choice of Jmol or Chimera structure viewer in
<a href="preferences.html#structure"> Preferences</a>. You can also
optionally specify the path to the Chimera program here (if it

If you save your Jalview session as a project file, the state of any
open Chimera windows will also be saved, and can be reopened by
loading the project file on any machine with Chimera installed. <em>Since
Jalview 2.9.</em>
