Dear all, Was the notebook feature implemented in Chimera? I found a message from some time ago but nothing else? Any plans to include a session notebook? I would ask for something really simple, just apt for text notes. Currently, I create text files with the same name than sessions but with .txt extension, however I think it would be useful to have this built-in in Chimera.

Hi Miguel, No, the notebook thing has never made it to the top of my to-do list. However, it seems like it will be pretty easy to implement so I will work on it soon and let you know when it's available. It will only go into the 1.7 daily build since we are no longer adding features to 1.6, only fixing bugs. Just FYI, you can add short notes about individual models by using the "add/edit note" button of the model panel. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu

Okay, I implemented a simple tool for adding notes and it will show up in the next successful 1.7 daily build. It's in the Utilities category and is call "Notepad". It has a limitation right now in that if you quit after adding notes but without saving a session, you'll lose those changes without any notification. I'll get around to improving that but it might be a little while. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu

Great, thank you very much Eric. Thank you as well for mentioning the model-associated notes, those are also useful. In fact, when we close a session that has been modified, we're never warned. But I guess we all got used to that behaviour :-) Best regards, -- Miguel Architecture et Fonction des Macromolécules Biologiques (UMR7257) CNRS, Aix-Marseille Université Case 932, 163 Avenue de Luminy, 13288 Marseille cedex 9, France Tel: +33(0) 491 82 55 93 Fax: +33(0) 491 26 67 20 mailto:miguel.ortiz-lombardia@afmb.univ-mrs.fr http://www.afmb.univ-mrs.fr/Miguel-Ortiz-Lombardia
