Re: [Jmol-developers] set picking * behavior

Miguel, did you ever get it set so that vibration animation magnitude and vibration vector length were decoupled? (So one might set longer arrows and smaller amount of motion?)

Miguel, can you give specifics here? I have:

set picking --not implemented

What is "set picking" and what are the options?

Bob

set picking is from RasMol (& therefore Chime)

It controls mouse selection behavior.

It is hard to describe. Open the console, try the various 'set picking'
modes, click on the atoms, and look at the output.

set picking on
set picking ident
  the default picking, which returns atom identification
  information when the user clicks on an atom

set picking off
  turns off atom identificaction information

set picking distance
  measures distance between 2 atoms

set picking angle
  measures angle between 3 atoms

set picking torsion
  measures torsion angle between 4 atoms

set picking label
  toggles labels off/on

set picking center
  sets center of rotation to be selected atom
  (As I recall, the way that Jmol implements
   center-of-rotation is different from RasMol/Chime)

set picking select atom
set picking atom
  toggles atom selection
  note that the atom set is *not* automatically cleared
  in most cases, what the script writer will want is
  select none; set display selected; set picking select atom

set picking select group
set picking group
  same animal, but at the group level

set picking select chain
set picking chain
  same animal, but at the chain level

Note that for group and chain, if the entire group/chain is not selected,
then the first click will be to select all the atoms in the group/chain.
If all atoms in the group/chain are selected, then clicking will toggle
off.
