Hi ChimeraX developers,
Is there a way to color nucleic acids by seq_rmsd? 
When I use the following, no atoms are colored. 

mm #1 to #2 matrix Nucleic showAlignment true
color byattribute seq_rmsd  #2 

Thank you in advance for your help! 
-Emily

Hi Emily,
That is a bug -- the problem is that currently, ChimeraX assumes the alignment is protein and tries to calculate the alpha-carbon RMSD rather than using nucleic-acid atoms.  I will create a bug ticket with you as the reporter so that you will be notified of any fixes.
