By typing ‘1’ into the entry field of ’Substitute text [1] with frame number’, any ‘1’ in your script will be replaced by the frame number, so by frame 96 the text ’sel :1000 zr<5’ becomes ’sel :96000 zr<5’. I’m guessing you want your command executed only on frame 1. To do that, as it says just above the ’Script’ area, prepend the command with ‘#:’, e.g.:

Dear Chimera developers,

I think I have found abug in the MD movies tool in Chimera, when trying to use the Per-Frame command Script: When selecting residues > :1000 (which have a residue number > 1000) it does not select the the residue, since it adds to the residue number the frame number, for example see the figure attached, with this logic, and trying to apply the script, if the I try to select residue :1000 the script gives a mistake and this is because it tries to select residue frame + residue number (in this case 96000) which of course does not exist. The same sequence works perfectly if the selection is done outside the script

Best,

Fabian
