Hi Jared, Thanks for the information. I finally stumbled onto the correct syntax when looking at how to move labels around.
Unfortunately, when I make the attempt, the log shows that all the grouped measurements are appropriately changed, but unfortunately, the changes are not limited to that group! I think there may be a bug. I'm pretty sure that the changes to one group are bleeding over to the other group, because I have the dashes colored differently, and the changes that bled over to the wrong group suddenly create a multi-colored line instead of a mono-color set of dashes. I think I have a work-around solution where I'll load two copies of my pdb. One will have dashes for H-bonds. One will have dashes for van der Waals, and then I'll delete everything but the dashes for one of them.

I understand how to make these changes in general, but each time I try to limit a change to only one named group of dashes, the syntax doesn't work, or it changes all dashes. Is it even possible to do what I am attempting?
