Thanks, Otis, But I need to know BEFORE I load the model(s). I envision this as being a two-step process. Given a PDB code, first query to find out the weight or number of atoms and number of models. Then decide how to load: -all atoms, all models? -all atoms, model 1 only? -alpha carbons and nucleic phosphorus atoms only? -(for extremely large models) every third alpha carbon?
And the decision would depend on whether using JSmol or Jmol_S. See e.g. http://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Jmol/Visualizing_large_molecules (written in 2011, needs updating). -Eric On 1/13/16 1:44 PM, Otis Rothenberger wrote: > Eric, > > alert(Jmol.evaluateVar(jmolApplet0, "{*}.size”)) > > should do the trick. > > Otis > -- > Otis Rothenberger > o...@chemagic.org > http://chemagic.org > >> On Jan 13, 2016, at 1:37 PM, Eric Martz <ema...@microbio.umass.edu> wrote: >> >> Dear Angel (and everyone), >> >> For years I have wanted a way to find out (in javascript or in JSmol) >> the number of atoms (or molecular weight) of a PDB entry before >> attempting to load it into JSmol.
