set labelsGroup # labels appear just in front of the atoms of their group. is in 10.9.53. Very simple implementation. Thanks for the suggestion, Eric. For file types that do not support protein/nucleic acid groups, set labelsGroup is the same as set labelsFront, since for those files all atoms are in the same group. Also applies to measurement labels.
