Command line problem
by Luca Pellegrini 03 Feb '15

Hi, I am having the following problem when I try to use the command line. When I select ‘Command line’ from the ‘Favorites’ menu, the command line window appears, but I can’t type anything in it. Or rather, I can type in it, because if I hit return the command gets executed, but I can’t see what I type. Any idea of what’s going on? I suspect that it might be something to do with Yosemite 10.10.2, since this problem arose after upgrading the MacOSX operating system. I am using Chimera 1.10.1, build 40415. Thanks for any advice.

Hi, I have a tRNA molecule and I would like to measure the angles between two nitrogenous bases. I created two planes, each for each base. When I select both planes, in order to measure the angles between them (Structure Measurements Axes/Planes/Centroids) I get following message: <type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'> Exception in Tk callback Function: <bound method SortableTable._browseCmd of <CGLtk.Table.SortableTable instance at 0x117990638>> (type: <type 'instancemethod'>) Args: ('1',) Traceback (innermost last): File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Pmw/Pmw_1_3/lib/PmwBase.py", line 1747, in __call__ return apply(self.func, args) File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/CGLtk/Table.py", line 1043, in _browseCmd self.userBrowseCmd(self.selected()) File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/StructMeasure/Geometry.py", line 268, in _tableCB self.feedback(sels) File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/StructMeasure/Geometry.py", line 113, in feedback diff = " ".join(words2[i:]) <type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'>: local variable 'i' referenced before assignment UnboundLocalError: local variable 'i' referenced before assignment File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/StructMeasure/Geometry.py", line 113, in feedback diff = " ".join(words2[i:]) See reply log for Python traceback. I really don’t know how can I solve this problem.. I’d be really grateful if you could help me or give me some hints! thank you a lot Letizia

Help Needed

Hi, I need a small help. I need to find out the amino acid residues from one chain of a protein which are within 5A of a specific amino acid residue of some another chain of the same protein. For example: Say I have a protein 1XYZ.pdb containing A, B, C chains. I want to find which amino acids from chain B and C are within 5A distance from ALA 78 belonging to chain A. Please let me know. Thanks. Angshuman
