Hi:

I seem to be a little confused about the new color by volume feature in
version 1.8.3.

If a load a molecule and a volumetric data set:
CMD1> mol load pdb mol1.pdb dx mol1.dx

and generate a surface using MSMS:
CMD2> mol modstyle 0 0 msms

then I think I should be able to color the surface by volume:
CMD3> mol modcolor 0 0 volume

But this returns the error:
        ERROR) Incorrect atom color method command 'volume'

What is a proper example of commands to color the surface by volume?

Thanks!
