Hi,

I was hoping someone could help me with a persistent problem I am having. I am running ChimeraX version 1.8 (2024-06-10) on OSX. This problem has persisted for quite a while through several versions. If I work in ChimeraX and save a group of atoms as a named selection, it generally works as expected for the first group. After that, if I use the command “name XXXX” or define a selection via the GUI, it seems to take the input and reserve the name. However, when I return and select that named selection, the entire protein gets selected. I cannot for the life of me figure out why. I’ve tried low numbers of atoms and high, short names and long, the problem persists. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Patrick
