Save bond-distance label-position

Dear reader, The distance measurement tool outputs a distance 'label' that by default is on the center of the line connecting the two atoms involved. In my structure I have about twenty of these, and I have manually dragged all distance values to empty spots in the image. However, if I save and re-open the session, the labels are back at their default position. I have tried <savepos>, and also <scene save>, but to no avail. Is there a way to save the bond-distance label-positions? Many thanks in advance, with kind regards, Maarten

Hi Maarten, This is a bug. Label offsets are being saved for bonds, but not pseudobonds (e.g. distances). I have committed changes to the code to save/restore the offsets, but as I'm working from home today it's awkward for me to test the changes. If you are feeling brave you can try tomorrow's daily build and see if the changes work. Otherwise I will test them myself Monday and ensure they work, and then add them to the release candidate as well. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab On Jun 10, 2016, at 4:28 AM, Maarten Schledorn wrote:
