Hi Kai, If you're using the "pbond" command, you can specify option "name model-name" and each different model name creates a separate model. (This command also has a "showDist" option to label with the distance.) <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/pbond.html> If you're opening a pbond file, each file will create a separate model. <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/pseudobonds.html#pbfiles> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hi ChimeraX Community, When I create pseudobonds or distance measurements between atoms in ChimeraX, all of the pseudobonds/distances are grouped together. Is there a way to organize them into separate groups or subgroups so that I can modify their properties (e.g., color, radius, labels) independently? Thanks for your help.
