Hi Martin,

your script works beautifully!!! Thank you very much!!!
I would like to understand two commands that you use in your script, for which I couldn't find any infos, neither in the manual, nor in the reference nor in the WiKi. Could you please tell me:
- what does "set scene_animation,-1" mean?
- what do the "mview store" and "mview interpolate" commands mean?

Thanks again!!!

Best regards,

Dirk.

Dirk,

Actually there is a way to render a movie from predefined scenes. I created a .pse-file with my desired scenes and then made a movie from the extrapolations between the scenes. It will look pretty much as an ordinary scene_animation in Pymol. From the movie I rendered lots of .png-files which I finally merged into a .mpg or .avi movie. It's time consuming but it works.

Here is a sample script that will render a 50 frame movie from two scenes stored in movie.pse:

********************************''
load movie.pse
set scene_animation,-1
set scene_animation_duration,0

mset 1 x50
scene F1
mview store, 1

scene F2
mview store, 30
mview store, 35

scene F1
mview store, 50

mview interpolate

set ray_trace_frames = 1
mpng movie
********************************''

Hope this is to some help.

cheers

/Martin

Hi Warren,

the scenes feature in PyMOL is _really_ nice! By choosing appropriate scenes, it does exactly what I would like to show in a movie describing a protein structure. Is there a way in PyMOL to export the individual frames for a movie from scenes? If not, this would be my most desired missing feature in PyMOL!

Best regards,

Dirk.
