Hi Victor, You can avoid writing/reading a file by using a StringIO object to emulate the file. How to do that is described here: http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimera-users/2008-March/002447.html Let me know if you have any problems. --Eric On Feb 21, 2012, at 9:08 AM, Victor Muñoz wrote:
Dear all,
I'm trying to make a script that draws an arrow on every atom and every frame during a trajectory using the MD movie. Right now, the script creates a .bild file to draw the arrows, but it is not a very good approach since it is creating a new file for every frame of the trajectory. I was wondering if there's a way to do the same thing without having to create the .bild file.
I already checked the "shape" command but you can´t use it to draw an arrow. Maybe I should make a combination between a cylinder and a rectangle to draw an arrow? Is there any other easy way to do that?
Thanks in advance. Kind regards, --
