Martin, Unfortunately this doesn't exist yet, but I agree that it is a necessary function. The best you can do right now is load a blank PDB file into that state. That should delete the coordinates for that state, but it doesn't actually delete the state.
# to delete the coordinates for state 2 of object 1hpv: cmd.read_pdbstr("","1hpv",2) Also note that for your use case, you can use the mset command to play through only a subset of trajectory states... # to play to states 20 through 100 only: mset 20 -100 Cheers, Warren -- Warren L.
