Hi Peter, If you could send me the PDB (or one like it) I'd like to see it.
The known flags for controlling how PyMOL loads multi-state files are: discrete= 0 or 1 If 0, then all states must have the same number of atoms and similar connectivity If 1, then all states are treated as different molecular structures, so can have differing numbers of atoms and bonds multiplex= 0 or 1 If 0, then load the N-state file as one N-state object If 1, then load the N-state file as N one-state objects So, what happens in v1.3 if you write: load fileName.pdb, multiplex=0 Cheers, -- Jason On Wed, Mar 16, 2011 at 10:23 AM, <peter.st...@weizmann.ac.il> wrote: > Dear PyMol experts: > > When using Open-Source PyMOL 0.99rc6 I read in a pdb file which has > 40 coordinate sets (each is one frame in an animation) each beginning > with: > HEADER Output iset= n "xxxx_G=r_0_01" > then a list of the pdb coordinates > and ending with: > ENDMDL > "n" ranges from 0 to 39. > This results in the following output: > HEADER Output iset= 0 "xxxx_G=r_0_01" > HEADER Output iset= 1 "xxxx_G=r_0_01" > ObjectMolReadPDBStr: read MODEL 1 > ObjectMolReadPDBStr: read MODEL 2 > etc. ... > ObjectMolReadPDBStr: read MODEL 39 > ObjectMolReadPDBStr: read MODEL 40 > CmdLoad: "/home/psstern/pymol/xxxx_G=r_0_01.pdb" loaded as "xxxx_G=r_0_01". > > This then displays one molecule with 40 frames and the animation can be > activated by clicking on the red arrow. > > However, when using Open-Source PyMOL 1.3 the same file results in > different behavior.
