Hi Jason, thanks for your hints. I tried. All fine: cmd.alter_state doesn't message the user also without a quite=1 option. cmd.label makes the same.
I used (as suggested) cmd.alter_state cmd.label 'cmd.alter_state' appears not be the same than 'alter_state' and so 'cmd.label' appears not be the same than 'label'. I've got errors when I setted quite=1 options in 'alter_state' and in 'label' So thanks for your hints. Cheers roberto Tjha alter_state and label instead message the the output window and don't suppor If I set a quite=1 option in alter_state label I get errors. .. but probably you already know. >----Messaggio originale---- >Da: jason.vertr...@schrodinger.com >Data: 28/02/2011 6.36 >A: "rv...@libero.it"<rv...@libero.it> >Cc: <pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net> >Ogg: Re: [PyMOL] labeling by a pseudoatom > >Hi Roberto, > >It's nice to see people learning how to script and putting PyMOL >through its paces. > >> trying to use a pseudoatom as label I met several problems: >> >> 1) How to move the label (pseudoatom) to a target residue? >> Is there a simple command to do? > >The easiest way would be to get the coordinates of the target residue, >I'd choose the alpha carbon (replace "X" with your residue number): > ># query residue X's alpha carbon, store the position in targetResPosition > >targetResPosition = cmd.get_atom_coords("resi X and n.
