Hi Eric, Thanks! Sounds good. Cheers, Alexis On Wed, Dec 13, 2023 at 4:13 PM Eric Pettersen <pett@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote:

Hi Alexis, There is an attribute for the insertion code, namely 'insertion_code'. The default residue label created by the "label" command really *should* include the insertion code but it currently doesn't. However if you use Actions→Label→Residue→Name and Number, the residue label will include the insertion code and you will be able to see in the log the command it used to do that. Starting with tomorrow's 1.8 daily build, the label command will also include the insertion code by default. We didn't put it in the 1.7 release candidate because we are *very* close to making it a production release and are leery about making any non-bug-fix changes to its code.

Hello,

A two part question from me today:

Part A. What is the syntax to get the label command to show insertion codes? As far as I can tell, insertion codes are not attributes. I can see that the insertion code is part the residue ID, but I don't know how to specify it as part of the label command.

Part 2. Would you consider having residue labels show insertion codes by default? This would be very useful when labeling residues from antibodies with Kabat numbering, for example, and my guess is it wouldn't "hurt" existing usage.

My apologies to Elaine in advance if I missed all this in the documentation.

Cheers, Alexis
