Hi Suzanne, You can also get the distance printed in the external GUI or terminal window by using the "cmd.distance" version of the command. So either you can assign the distance to a variable and print it or you can print the result directly.
Assuming you have two selections, sele1 and sele2 specifying the atoms of interest you could do something like this: d = cmd.distance(sele1,sele2) print sele1,sele2,d Cheers, Rob On Mon, 2014-06-09 13:13 EDT, Thomas Holder <thomas.hol...@schrodinger.com> wrote: > Hi Suzanne, > > you can use the get_distance command.
