John, color red, 5paa and elem o The problem with using asterices as wildcards in atom names is that some ill-conceived PDB files actually use them in atom names.
However, PyMOL does support the use of a terminal wildcard in some cases, such as with the delete command... create obj01, none create obj02, none delete obj* And with residue names color red, as* color blue, gl* color pink, hi* Cheers, Warren > -----Original Message----- > From: pymol-users-ad...@lists.sourceforge.net > [mailto:pymol-users-ad...@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of > John Berrisford > Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2004 3:42 AM > To: pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [PyMOL] selecting multiple atoms ie oxygen > > I wish to select multiple oxygens (labelled O1, O2 etc.. > within my pdb file) and colour them red for example.
