I am using CIF files where atoms are generated according to symmetry operations. One problem is that I want to select all atoms of a particular kind. I looked at "set picking ATOM" but that selects just one atom. "set picking GROUP" seems to select all atoms even though I have defined things like: 'define ~anions (oxygen or nitrogen or fluorine or sulphur or chlorine or bromine or iodine);'+ I assumed this would define a "group" called ~anions, but apparently not. What is a "group" then? What would be great would be to have additional picking commands: "set picking ELEMENT" (select all atoms of that element) "set picking SITE" (select all symmetry related atoms for that particular site) I would also like to be able to qualify this with "and VISIBLE" since I have invisible atoms that I want to stay unselected and invisible.
