Hi all,

I am trying to fit part of my search model into my experimental density using 
pymol.  I got initial model fitting to the experimental map using molrep, but 
want to make some changes to certain helices and strands before I pop the 
model into a rigid body and simulated annealing run, since they're obviously 
off by eye and a correction here would make the subsequent runs that much 
better.  I've done the following:

Loaded molrep fit model
Loaded experimental maps
Created selection of residues to move
Turned selection into an object
Moved object using "3-button Editing" mode
Save object.pdb, object name

However, when I look at the saved file that should contain the coordinates of 
the adjusted model, it is empty except for an END statement.  As a control I 
loaded another model, rotated it in editing mode, then saved it as a new pdb 
file (so no selection creation or change from selection to object).  It also 
wrote an empty but for END file.  I googled around and look through some of 
the mailing list, but have not found any clues.

I also used File-> Save molecule from the pull-down menu, same result.

Does anyone have an idea what is going on or how to correct?
Pymol version 0.99rc6 running on Linux (CentOS 4.4)
