Re: [PyMOL] Caver 3.0 pugin

2013-11-15 Thread James Starlight
This issue have been solved. Caver works fine. Does anyone tried to include
path information obtained by caver to the NAMD steered md simulation? I'm
looking for the protocol for guiding namd forces along the direction
obtaned from CAVER.

Re: [PyMOL] Drawing chain to visualize backbone

2013-11-15 Thread Sampson, Jared
Hi Simon - 

I don't think you need to do any deleting of atoms at all--there are a few 
settings that will be helpful here.  Here's how I would do what I think you're 
asking for:

# load and set basic representation
load structure.pdb
as cartoon

# create the smooth version
create smooth, structure
cartoon tube, smooth
set cartoon_tube_radius, 1.5
set cartoon_smooth_loops, on, smooth
set cartoon_transparency, 0.5, smooth

# give everything a "loop" secondary structure for the smooth version
alter smooth, ss="L"
rebuild

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Jared

Re: [PyMOL] movie, ~1700 residues, out of memory

Hi Christian,

set defer_builds_mode to 3, this will prevent caching the geometry for all 
states.

[PyMOL] Caver 3.0 pugin

2013-11-15 Thread James Starlight
Dear Pymol Users!


In the latest 3.0 releases of the CAVER plugin lack the source path for the
caver.jar launch file. Could you tell me how I could define this path
manually from pymol shell? I've try to make calculations with thus plugin
having Caver 3.0 dir in the work folder but obtained error that
/where/caver3 not found


Thanks for help

James
