Yes I would do it that way by clicking on the ones I want to see -
then saving them and then reading them back in. You can change the
chainids so Coot makes them different colours which might help.
Things might be easier in PyMol if you want interactive control over
the colours for a picture say.

This is a very nice implementation of the PISA approach.
Another approach is to use the Chimera clash finding approach

So make sure you include EDTA or similar chelator (after metal affinity
