Re: [PyMOL] help with batch mode

As a point of minor clarification: The "quiet" option (if present) is set to zero by default for parsed PyMOL commands, but is not set for Python API calls. In other words, zoom is nearly equal to cmd.zoom(quiet=0) even though the Python definition for "zoom" has quiet=1 as a default argument

Jack, Although not everyone sees PyMOL in such a narrow light, my view is that the software is best viewed as a molecular graphics platform open for integration with computational tools (e.g. semi-empirical QM/MM) via manual data import, via automated PyMOL command scripts, or via the Python prog

Mike, As for NMR ensembles, so long as all of the structures loaded as multiple states in a single object (the default behavior for NMR ensembles in multi-model PDB format): print cmd.intra_fit(selection, state) will fit all of the other states to the indicated states and return the RMS values a

David, Because of changed made to registry entries and protected filesystems, local Administrator rights are normally required in order to install PyMOL under Windows. Did the IT department recently take those away perhaps? If not, then maybe the tips posted on PyMOLWiki can help: http://www

Janet, Unforutnately not. At present, cartoon_transparency must be uniform over the entire cartoon representation. You can split the cartoon into multiple objects to obtain differential transparency, but as you correctly point out, that will cause a break or gap in the cartoon. Cheers, Warren

Hello, I am learning a little about molecular dynamics simulations. Currently using Amber and CP2k. Hoping to integrate CP2K into a distributed computing project using serialized computations. A friend of mine recently said Pymol is a fancy piece of software. Before I get invested in learning abou

Hey Michael, with some commands, you can use the (somewhat poorly documented) option 'quiet=0' to get results sent to standard output, like so: load ./final/final.001.pdb load ./final/final.002.pdb fit (final.002///13-30/c,ca,n), (final.001///13-30/c,ca,n), quiet=0 Andreas Michael Summers

Hi, I've been unable to install Pymol recently on an XP Pro-SP2 system. I'll start setup.exe, and ntvdm.exe starts running but nothing progresses from there (no error messages and installshield doesn't start). I'm not sure if it's a software conflict with something else running, but it's likely (a
