Hi,
I have come across a problem that I cannot find a way around and would
greatly appreciate some help. I have made a movie showing several protein
models and numerous distances to illustrate residue interactions in
different structures. This movie is rather long, and I wanted to make a very
short version containing certain "screenshots" of the original. I have
created *.pse files corresponding to the frames I would want in the short
movie, but cannot find a way of loading these in a script. (I can view them
"manually" by opening them one at a time through the command line, but that
rather defeats the point.) I wanted to load these using mset and mdo
commands, but of course, as soon as I load the first one, PyMOL's memory
returns to the state that was saved and the new movie is deleted. I suppose
I need to save these files in another format, but have not been able to find
anything that seems appropriate.
I have also encountered another small problem that I do not need a solution
to but thought I would mention as it might be a bug (though it could be due
to my very amateurish programming): when running the long movie (which
creates and deletes a large number of distances), if the movie is stopped
and then start again, some distances (I suppose corresponding to commands
given in frames where the movie was stopped) are not deleted, whereas if the
movie is run without interruption, all distances are handled correctly. (I
am using version 0.97)
I am not very computer literate, so a simple explanation would be fantastic.
;)
Thanks for your advice.
Nadine
