Harry, I forgot the "matrix_mode" option. Here's a script that should get your first simple movie done for 1yme and help you with others. # fetch a protein with a great name fetch 1yme, one, async=0 # symmetry expand symexp foo, one, one, 4 # rename for easier use; call it "two" set_name foo01-100-1,two # remove others dele foo* # setup the camera view orient # set up a simple movie and save camera position mset 1x60 mview store # save mobile objects original position mview store, object=one # align the two objects align one, two, object=aln # grab the transformation matrix mm = cmd.get_object_matrix("one") # undo the transformation matrix_reset one frame 60 # this caused the problems set matrix_mode, 2 # move object one cmd.transform_object("one", mm) # store its new position which # PyMOL automaticaly reinterpolates for us mview store, object=one mplay Cheers, -- Jason -- Jason Vertrees, PhD PyMOL Product Manager Schrodinger, LLC (e) jason.vertr...@schrodinger.com (o) +1 (603) 374-7120 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
