Hi Jon, this will give you the A1 object color:
s = cmd.get_session("A1", partial=1, compress=0) print cmd.get_color_tuple(s["names"][0][5][0][2]) I use to query the color of the first atom instead of the "object color", see psico.querying.get_color: https://github.com/speleo3/pymol-psico/blob/master/psico/querying.py Cheers, Thomas On 25 Nov 2013, at 06:42, Jonathan Grimes <jonat...@strubi.ox.ac.uk> wrote: > dear all, > > i am having implementing these instructions. > > i would like to work out what color an object is…… > > how is this defined ….. > >> s["names"][1][5][0][1] >> >> equals your object name. > > if I have an object called A1…i am unsure how to > make A1 equal to s["names"][1][5][0][1] > > > many thanks > > jon > > > Dr. Jonathan M.
