Thanks Thomas

I've just one extra question about ligand sites.
As I've said previously I can obtain information about polar contacts
between ligand and its surrounding residues via Present- ligand sites.

On the next step I mask all other non relevant parts of the protein ( wich
are represented as the cartoon) by

hide cartoon

so as the consequence I have only ligand and its environment ( other
residues and some water)

How I could select all this visible (relevant) part and save it in the
separate pdb?
I've not found such simple selection by the visible part in the selection
algebra :(
