[PyMOL] Hiding individual dash/distance objects within a merged-dash object

2011-04-26 Thread Harry Jubb
Hi Everyone,

I'd like to ask for some help with dash/distance objects. I have PyMOL session 
files  which show inter-molecular interactions using PyMOL distance objects. 
These were created using a script which colours each distance object and merges 
them according to type of interaction. The problem I'm having is that I would 
prefer to visualise the interactions on a per-residue basis, i.e. showing all 
the interactions for one or more residues but not the others, but as the dashes 
are merged by interaction type I can only hide by that category. Extensive 
Googling has not led me to a solution to select and hide individual dashes that 
are merged into one UI object, so I'd like to ask if it is possible to do this? 
I'm unfortunately no longer able to run the script again (I am at the end of a 
time limited project and am preparing figures) and I would prefer not to 
replace each dash manually.

I hope this is clear, the crux of what I am asking is if it is possible to 
select and/or hide individual distance objects in a pymol session after they 
have been merged into one object. Un-merging them would also be an attractive 
solution.

Thanks,

Harry

Hi Harry,

If they've been combined using the group command, you can ungroup them:

fetch 1rx1
# make some distance objects
dist measure01, 19/C, 20/C
dist measure02, 20/C, 21/C
dist measure03, 158/C, 159/C
dist measure04, 157/C, 159/C
# group them
group g1, measure01 or measure02
group g2, measure03 or measure04
#ungroup all of them (this leaves empty groups, which you can delete if
you'd like)
ungroup measure*

Hope that helps,

-Michael

Re: [PyMOL] Hiding individual dash/distance objects within a merged-dash object

2011-04-26 Thread Hongbo Zhu
Hi, Harry,

I am curious. How do you merge objects resulting from distance ? Do 
you mean to group them? If so, you can use ungroup command to, well, 
ungroup them. But if the merged object is generated using a CGO, I doubt 
you can unmerge the CGO object. But I don't know dash CGOs, either. 
(Unless you make dashes using small line fragments :)

So do you have dashes or solid lines? Do you see a plus sign before the 
object in PyMOL?

Hi Harry,

As far as I know, this is not currently possible in PyMOL, but perhaps
someone will correct me on this.

 command doesn't seem to work for. Left-clicking on the interaction type in

 un-merge these objects to make each dash an object that I can hide or show
 individually so I can switch off the ones not connected to a residue of
 interest. Even better (if possible) would be to only show dashes connected
 to a residue of choice.

 I hope that makes sense. Thank you for your help,

Re: [PyMOL] Hiding individual dash/distance objects within a merged-dash object

2011-04-26 Thread Jason Vertrees
Hi Harry,

For measures (distances, angles, dihedrals), PyMOL can color down to
the level of an object (eg. color blue, measure01).  So, once you add
another measure into an extant object, PyMOL cannot separate those two
colors.  My suggestion is that you measure into new objects if you
need new coloring.  If you have lots of measurements as a result, then
you can group them and color by wildcard.

Cheers,

Re: [PyMOL] Hiding individual dash/distance objects within a merged-dash object

2011-04-26 Thread Harry Jubb
Hi Jason,

Thanks for your response. The colouring is all correct as there is an object 
for each interaction type, the problem now is splitting the measures back into 
single objects, which Dr Lerner has mentioned is not currently possible. If 
this is the case I will try to refine my figures another way, the main 
objective was to selectively hide all the dashes except for those connected to 
a residue of interest purely for clarity of presentation.

Thanks once more,

Harry
