Output motion prickle magnitude

Using the measure motion command I am able to generate the prickles on the surfaces correctly, which is great for visualization. Is it possible to write the magnitude of those prickles, and the index to a file so we can do further analysis on the distributions?

Hi Brandon, To get numeric values out related to the ChimeraX measure motion command you would need to edit the Python code adding some print statements which will go to the Log panel. That code is a bit complex but if you have some familiarity with Python it might be possible. The code is in your ChimeraX distribution. Here is where I think the file is on different operating systems (I only verified location on Mac) Mac ChimeraX.app/Contents/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/map/series/measure_motion.py Windows ChimeraX/bin/lib/site-packages/chimerax/map/series/measure_motion.py Linux chimerax/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/map/series/measure_motion.py Tom
