Hello to the list, I start trying to write my first py code in chimera (not that easy without too much doc strings) and have a first question to submit. Here is what I am doing in IDLE:
import chimera opened = chimera.openModels.open('1zik.pdb')
mol = opened[0] for i in mol.atoms: print i.name
N CA CB CG CD .../... # Now I want to instanciate an atom and set its name attribute:
at1=chimera.Atom at1.name="BC1" print at1.name BC1
# Now I redo the previous loop:
for i in mol.atoms: print i.name
BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 BC1 .../... They're all BC1!!! How come ? My created atom 'at1' and my 'mol' are supposed to be completely seperated objects no? Can someone help, I am afraid I missed something really basic here... Bye to all
