Get Molecule Index in Model Panel
by Pablo Solar Rodríguez 29 Feb '20

Hello all, Optimizing my plugin, I need to hide atoms and show ribbons for some opened Molecules. What I am trying is to loop over opened molecules in the ModelPanel and, If the Molecule matches a specific tag, save its index in a indexes list. Then, hide atoms and show ribbons by makeCommand with the indexes: *def adjust_visualization(self, final_pdbs):* * """ Adjust atoms and ribbons visualization for FitOpt final solutions """ indexes = [] chimera.openModels.add(final_pdbs) molecule_list = om.list(modelTypes=[Molecule])* * for index, molecule in enumerate(molecule_list):* * if self.fitopt_tag in molecule.name <http://molecule.name>: indexes.append('#' + str(index))* * makeCommand(' '.join(['~show', ' '.join(indexes)])) makeCommand(' '.join(['ribbon', ' '.join(indexes)]))* It seems that the index from enumerate is not corresponding to the index in the ModelPanel so how could I get the proper molecule index?? Thank you all in advance! Regards!! *Pablo Solar Rodríguez*

copy_molecule does not keep representation
by Pablo Solar Rodríguez 28 Feb '20

28 Feb '20

Hello all again!! I am using the copy_molecule from Molecule ( http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/attachment/wiki/Scripts/copymol.py) but when I add the new pdb to the ModelPanel it is in atoms view and grey-colored. For example, if I copy 5 pdbs that are in ribbons view, the new 5 pdb copies will be opened in atoms view and all in grey color. Is normal this behaviour when using copy_molecule? Is there a way to fix this? Thank you in advance!

Coloring chains from Python
by Jan Kosinski 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

Hi, In the “old” Chimera, is there an efficient way of coloring an entire chain with a single defined color from the Python interface without resorting to runCommand(‘color …') and atom_spec ? The runCommand(‘color …atom_spec ’) makes some issues when special characters are used as chain ids in the atom_spec. I guess I could loop through all atoms of chain but that might be slow for big structures. Best, Jan
