Thanks to Miguel's advice I am able to script changes to atom features
(e.g. color, size, label) for specific models in an animation using a
xyz coordinate file. Now I would like to insert a monitor line between
specific atoms for certain models as the animation progresses. This is
desireable because animations in which molecular species move with
respect to each other may cease to show elongated bonds. These could be
designated by a short script:
monitor x y
set monitors off
set monitors 0.1
Unfortunately, designating the desired models by: select (*/10, *11,
*12, etc.); does not work. The specified monitor line appears only in
the last frame (model) of the animation. Can anyone suggest a method of
inserting monitor bonds in specified models?
A second question concerns the color of the monitor line. The default
color in Jmol is black, but the Rasmol manual indicates the color should
be taken from the end point atoms. I believe this would be preferable,
since the color monitors command would allow all other choices.
