Dear Elaine, Then I can change the style of the Hbonds according to your methods. Thank you very much~~~ On Sun, May 20, 2012 at 12:12 AM, Elaine Meng <meng@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:
Hi Wendy, There are a few different ways:
(a) Ctrl-click to select one H-bond, press keyboard up-arrow to expand selection to all H-bonds, click the green magnifying glass icon near the bottom of the Chimera window to open Selection Inspector, inspect "Pseudobond group" and change the "line style" <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/inspection.html>
(b) start Pseudobond Panel (in menu under Tools... General Controls), click on group name "hydrogen bonds" on the left and then "attributes" on the right, change "line style" <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/pbpanel.html>
(c) use command "setattr" e.g. something like: setattr g lineType 2 <http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/setattr.html>
The attribute name (e.g. lineType) and what values mean what (e.g. 2= dashed, 3 = dotted) are shown in the balloon help when you put the mouse over the attribute dialogs mentioned in (a) and (b).
I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Computer Graphics Lab (Chimera team) and Babbitt Lab Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hello all, I am doing the Hbond analysis for my investigation. I found that the Hbonds are labeled as the solid line in the Chimera. But I prefer the dashed line. How to change it? Thank you~~~
