Re: [COOT] call for beta testers [was Re: buggy coot 0.6-pre-1 r2264 on OS X 10.4.11]

2009-09-15 Thread Miguel Ortiz Lombardia

Dear Paul and Bill,

rev 2310 from fink works properly now on mac (intel) os 10.5.8

Thank you a lot for solving this problem so quickly (and heroically)!

Some issues, then.

When launching coot I get this error:

INFO:: loading preferences file /Users/mol/.coot-preferences/ 
coot_toolbuttons.py

Running python script /Users/mol/.coot-preferences/coot_toolbuttons.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File string, line 1, in module
  File /Users/mol/.coot-preferences/coot_toolbuttons.py, line 1,  
in module
coot_toolbar_button(Side-by-side/Mono,  
side_by_side_stereo_mono_toggle(), stereo-view.svg)

NameError: name 'coot_toolbar_button' is not defined




and yes, my side-by-side/Mono button is gone (and today I'm unable to  
find the way to add it back there or to add just any other user- 
defined button as a matter of fact, but this is most probably because  
I have less than half neuron awake)


Then, a debug warning, I put it here in case it may ring a bell  
somewhere:



load extensions.scm
DEBUG:: in safe_python_command_with_return() pValue is 0x162f52c
DEBUG:: in safe_python_command_with_return() pValue is 0x162f52c

DEBUG:: in safe_python_command_with_return() pValue is 0x162f52c
INFO:: loading preferences file /Users/mol/.coot-preferences/coot- 
preferences.scm





Other issues:

* Residue Info window is not updated when ab alt-conformation is added
* If an alt-conf is added and then an auto-fit-rotamer, the  
occupancies get mangled (for a two-conf case, one goes to 0.0  
occupancy and the other to 1.0)
* The labels 'Maximum' and 'minimum distance to protein atoms' in the  
'Find waters' dialog are swapped. Or, at least, Minimum is set to 3.40  
and maximum to 2.20, which makes no sense to me (but see the neuronal  
awakeness alert above)


And a good thing found in this version: bond parameters preferences  
(width) is now taken into account!!!


Thanks again!


Miguel

 Dear Bill,
 Thanks for your quick reply!  I installed the new revision but
 it doesn't seem to make a difference (to my problems). I guess
 you're right and it's because I am still running 10.4 - think
 it's time to upgrade to 10.6, finally!

  Again, many thanks and best regards,

 Paul just pulled off a heroic fix (rev 2310).  Please try that.


So the last couple of days have been a bit frustrating for me, but a
good deal of credit goes to Bill of course.

Anyway...

the time is approaching for a new point release.  While there are  
still a couple of issues on the list to be addressed, feedback on  
the current pre-release would be appreciated.  Mac users will need  
Bill's latest and greatest, others can use the binaries on the pre- 
release page:


http://www.biop.ox.ac.uk/coot/devel/build-info.html

If possible, please restrict your comments to issues in 0.6, not  
missing features or features for 0.7 - there will be time for that  
after 0.6 is out and working.


Thanks,

Paul.

Oh dear..

Due to above I guess.





Then, a debug warning, I put it here in case it may ring a bell

Agreed, debug be gone.

Fair enough.  For 0.6.1


* If an alt-conf is added and then an auto-fit-rotamer, the 
occupancies get mangled (for a two-conf case, one goes to 0.0 
occupancy and the other to 1.0)


Confirmed.  That's a baddie! - Thanks.

'Find waters' dialog are swapped. Or, at least, Minimum is set to 3.40 
and maximum to 2.20, which makes no sense to me (but see the neuronal

Shock again!  Yes, confirmed.  I've had a setting in my .coot file for 
years, so I've not noticed this.

OK. good.

Thanks for the feedback.

This can be read in at least two ways.


As anyone who knows me could tell you, the only thing I really can  
take credit for is constant, relentless complaining.


[COOT] fink remove old packages

2009-09-15 Thread Andreas Förster

Hey all (especially Bill, I guess),

I was bushwhacking through the fink jungle on my MacBook Pro (10.5.8) 
today and realized just how vast it it.  There are 18GB in /sw.  As 
examples (and to make this email uncannily on-topic), there are 18 
coot_0.6-pre-1-revision--?_darwin-i386.deb packages and 14 
coot_0.5-pre-1-*_darwin-i386.deb packages in 
/sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/sci.


Is this necessary?  How do I clean fink up?  I should say that I compile 
everything from source.


Thanks.


Andreas

Re: [COOT] ccp4mg

2009-09-15 Thread Wu, Zhongren
Paul,
Thank you for the mail.   It is indeed a problem in the PDB format,
generated at the Yale server.  The segID was wrong and the atom type was
missing.

After the correction, however, I am still struggling with the animation
functions in ccp4mg

 I am using ccp4mg to get nice graphics for presentations.  I have no

Hello Zhongren Wu,

If ccp4mg complains about the format of the PDB file(s) it is probably
right.  The devil is in the detail - what does it say?  If I had to
guess, I'd say that the files from they yale.edu are not  sanctioned PDB
format.

Paul.

p.s. slightly ironic that you should ask about ccp4mg here.  There is a
mailing list for ccp4mg questions:
