Is there a way to activate/show (...not only select) a loaded dockview frame using the chimera COMMAND LINE (show frame 1, show frame 10, show frame 20 ...)? I tried different commands, using models.submodels combinations, no success, I can select different submodels, but, I cannot bring them on the screen without clicking on the dockviewe window.
You can show a viewdock model with the 'modeldisp' command, e.g.: modeldisp #0.5 modeldisp turns display of the entire model on without changing the display state of individual atoms, so that if you had undisplayed hydrogens previously for instance, hiding the model with ~modeldisp and then showing it with modeldisp would keep the hydrogens hidden. With tonight's daily build you can activate a model for motion with select 0.5 (and deactivate it with ~select). Prior to tonight's build there was a problem parsing submodel numbers in the select command and you would have to use this kludgey alternative: select 0.5-5 --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu
