Hi all, I’m wondering, is there any way (presumably via a python function) to get the path to the original file from the model ID? I’ve written a little python jiffy (below) so I can lowpass filter maps to a specified resolution on the fly inside chimera using EMAN, but is quite slow because I need to first write a copy of the map out (so I know where it is) and then modify it. If anyone knows of an easier way to do such things I would be most grateful. Cheers, Oli.
