Hi,
I would like to export the mesh of a surface created in VMD and colored based on a electrostatic potential. The final aim would be to have a 3D model on it (e.g. a .u3d format)
I tried most of the output options provided by VMD, including wavefront .obj and .mtl files. When the surface is colored with a colorID, it seems to work.
In contrast, when I loaded these files in Meshlab, it seemed that the information of the color was missing?

Is there any way to do it correctly?

Thank you
Walter
