Hi Leonardo, Selecting a bunch of residue using their numbers is basically the same as in Chimera, e.g. in ChimeraX you could use command: select :172,192-198,208,214 Command-line specification in ChimeraX: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/atomspec.html> Differences in command-line specification vs. Chimera: <https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/atomspec-diffsum.html> I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hello there! I wondered if there is a way to quickly select noncontiguous residues from the command line (useful, for example, when selecting a set of residues defining an active site, a template for docking, etc.). In standard chimera, I would use the command SELECT with numbers, commas, and hyphens (e.g., SELECT: 172,192,193,208:214). Thanks, Leonardo Polytechnic University of Marche, Ancona, Italy
