Hi Marek,
I just made some changes to preserve the prmtop charge info, so if you get tomorrow's daily build you will be able to use those charges.

Dear all,

when using PRMROP/INPCRD(RST,MDCRD) files to load molecule - is Chimera able to read CHARGE information
from the PRMTOP file ? If Chimera is able to do it, how is then possible to label atoms with it's charges ?

It seems to me that the recommended commands sequence

focus
labelopt info charge
label

works only after  "Add Charge" procedure which is trying to calculate charges according the residuies in loaded
molecule but I do hope that that there is also way how to simply visualize charge values which are already present
in the PRMTOP file.

Thanks a lot in advance for your comments !

Best wishes,
