Re: [PyMOL] map smaller than in Coot

2009-06-08 Thread Warren DeLano
Greetings Michael, I suspect this is a question PyMOL automatically normalizing the map values, whereas the other programs might not. For historical reasons, PyMOL's default behavior is to normalize CCP4 map values upon loading. To prevent this, issue: unset normalize_ccp4_maps before loading

As for the your general question: can you import pymol; from pymol import cmd; pymol.finish_launching(); etc? Answer 1: Yes, if you manually compile PyMOL open-source code into an existing Python interpreter. Or Answer 2: Yes, if you run your Python script using PyMOL's built-in Python

Raluca, PyMOL transforms the output geometry in order to deliver a default view matching what's seen in the viewer window. To prevent that, you'll need to effectively eliminate PyMOL's camera transformation by restoring to a transformation-less identity matrix: cmd.reset()
