Hi Tatsiana, As the error message suggests, your write command is incorrect and needs a model-number argument, e.g. write #0 newfile.pdb There are other options that might also be useful: <http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/write.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.

Thank you, Eric!
Do you know how do I save minimized file in a pdb format?
I tried
rc("minimize spec ':1-97.C z<10.0 & :.G|:1-97.C z<10.0 & :.F|:1-97.C' nsteps 100 cgsteps 0") rc("write 'newfile.pdb'")
It does the minimization, but doesn't write the file
MidasError: "'newfile.pdb'" is not a model number
Error while processing chimera_mini.py:"
Thank you!
