Hi Elaine, Sorry, I'll keep the proper email addresses in mind. Updating to 1.8 fixed it, thank you!! Best, Ellen On Wed, Sep 18, 2024 at 8:31 AM Elaine Meng <meng@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:

Hi Ellen, You sent this question to the Chimera address -- in the future, please send ChimeraX questions to the ChimeraX address chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu <mailto:chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> CC'd here to avoid confusing the other users.

This answer is for ChimeraX:

It works for me: labels show the insertion code. Make sure you have ChimeraX 1.8 or newer. Example 1h4w which has residues with insertion codes 184A, 188A, 221A:

open 1h4w label :184,184A height 2

I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Resource for Biocomputing, Visualization, and Informatics Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hi Elaine and Eric,

I hope all is well. I am writing because I am using the chimerax command 'label sel residues height 1' but I noticed that the insertion codes are not making it into the labels. I attached an example cxc session along with the commands provided. In, for example, model #4, there are two residues labeled '100' even though when I hover over the residues, they have insertion codes. Do you know if there is a way I can label the residues with the position numbers including the insertion codes? (I copied below the entire script I ran. Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide.)

Thanks, Ellen
