Dear all, 

How can I export the fractional coordinates of one specif frame having loaded 
in Jmol a structure with several model? 
I am asking that question because I experienced the following drawbacks: 


Ok if I type var xyzCoord = {1.1}.label(" %16.9[xyz]"); print xyzCoord  i get 


Fe      0.355299979     0.355300009     0.355300009
Fe1      0.144699976     0.144699991     0.144699991
Fe1      0.644700050     0.644700050     0.644700050
Fe      0.855300009     0.855300069     0.855300069
O      0.555899978     0.944100022     0.250000030
O      0.249999970     0.555899978     0.944100022
O      0.944100022     0.250000060     0.555900037
O      0.444100022     0.055900037     0.750000060
O      0.750000000     0.444100022     0.055900037
O      0.055899978     0.750000000     0.444099993

When I do like var xyzCoord = {1.2}.label(" %16.9[xyz]"); print xyzCoord  i get 

Fe      0.355299979     0.355300009     0.355300009
Fe1      0.144699976     0.144699991     0.144699991

Fe      0.855300009     0.855300069     0.855300069
O      0.555899978     0.944100022     0.250000030

O      0.055899978     0.750000000     0.444099993
Fe      0.355299652     0.355299652     0.355299652
Fe1      0.144700378     0.144700363     0.144700378
Fe1      0.644700468     0.644700408     0.644700408
Fe      0.855299592     0.855299652     0.855299592
O      0.555843592     0.944156408     0.249999940
O      0.249999970     0.555843532     0.944156349
O      0.944156468     0.249999881     0.555843532
O      0.444156408     0.055843621     0.749999881
O      0.750000000     0.444156408     0.055843621
O      0.055843592     0.749999940     0.444156379

which includes the second frame but also the first. Now if I type var xyzCoord 
= {1.3}.label(" %16.9[xyz]"); print xyzCoord
I get 1, 2 and 3 and so on . 

How can I make jmol printing just the coordinates which belongs to the second 
frame or the third when i type  {1.2}.label(" %16.9[xyz]") or  {1.3}.label(" 
%16.9[xyz]")? 


2) I cannot find in the script guide how to get the number of atoms of a 
certain frame. For instance I have a MgO cell with 4Mg and 4O atoms how can I 
know that the structure has 4 Mg and 4O? 

Thanks, Piero.

Piero, let's work on communicating more clearly.

I can't process little tiny messages like that. If you are still having 
problems with not being able to separate the two models, you need to send me 
the file (again if necessary -- no attachments in any of these messages in this 
thread) and explain exactly what you are having a problem with and what you are 
expecting to accomplish.

It sounds like you are developing some interesting things, and I'm happy to 
help you, but this particular thread is not working.

The best thing to do is to send me .jmol files that you create using

write xxxx.jmol

and then tell me exactly what commands you are having trouble with.

Also, for things like this that are simply "how do you use Jmol" questions, I 
would appreciate it if you would address those to 
jmol-users@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:jmol-users@lists.sourceforge.net>, not 
hans...@stolaf.edu<mailto:hans...@stolaf.edu>. That way others can help you at 
least as well as I can, and in the process more people will learn.

Thanks,

 Bob

What happens when you say

print {1.1}

print {1.2}

print {*}[0].model

?

Send me the file. That should work fine.
