Hi Abhi, Actually, it was a bit surprising to me to see you're right. Now, for showing/hiding, it has been dealt with in the code, by allowing the "+" to be left out. However, for selecting (and alter_ing) that doesn't go, apparently. A workaround is to use
cmd.select("selectionname","r. na\+") or cmd.select("selectionname","n. na\+") Alternatively, you can change the residue/atomnames using: cmd.alter("r. na\+","resn='Na'") or cmd.alter("n. na\+","name='Na'") All of these worked for me. Of course, it would be good to have this dealt with properly in the same way as for showing/hiding. Hope it helps, Tsjerk On 2/2/07, Abhinav Verma <abhinav1...@gmail.com> wrote:
Hallo, I have an annoying problem. I have pdb file with Na+ atoms defined as ATOM 1 Na+ Na+ 53 -1.106 7.854 52.244 1.00 0.00 Na now if want to select these Na+ with PyMOL>select n. na+ Selector: selection "sele" defined with 0 atoms. Any ideas how to select them? I tried renaming them to Na and then select n. na which works. So I assume the problem is "+" which is used for add in pymol. I also tried n. "na+" which did not work either. thanks in advance, Abhi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
