In Jmol math you can "drill down" into properties by adding parameters rather than using the dot notation.
nModels = getProperty("modelInfo","modelCount") does what you want. If you know there is only one file loaded, but it might have multiple models, AND you know they are numbered sequentially starting with 1, so that the highest model number is the model count, then this will work: nModels = {*}.model.max similarly, if there is a sequential array, as there is here: print getproperty("modelInfo","models",3,"file") gives you the file for the third model. (Zero there instead of 3 would give you information about the LAST model, -1 would be for the NEXT TO LAST model, etc.) It's not exactly obvious, but by looking at the full output for modelInfo you might be able to guess what parameters you will need. "models" is listed as a Vector[3], each of which includes a number of items. Ah, I have a great idea. We should be able to do this using the following notation: print getProperty("modelInfo.models[3].file") Let me see if I can implement that. modelinfo modelSetHasVibrationVectors false modelCount 3 modelSetName "1CDR" modelSetProperties PATH_SEPARATOR ";" PATH_KEY ".PATH" models Vector[3] atomCount 1269 _ipt 0 name "1" bondCount 1289 file_model "1.1" polymerCount 2 file "C:\jmol-dev\workspace\Jmol\bobtest\1.pdb" chainCount 1 num 1 vibrationVectors false title "1CDR" groupCount 80 , atomCount 1269 _ipt 1 name "2" bondCount 1289 file_model "1.2" polymerCount 2 file "C:\jmol-dev\workspace\Jmol\bobtest\1.pdb" chainCount 1 num 2 vibrationVectors false title "1CDR" groupCount 80 , atomCount 725 _ipt 2 name "5" bondCount 737 file_model "1.3" polymerCount 1 file "C:\jmol-dev\workspace\Jmol\bobtest\1.pdb" chainCount 1 num 5 vibrationVectors false title "1CDR" groupCount 49 Bob Rolf Huehne wrote: > Hi, > >I would like to use the Jmol math 'getProperty("modelInfo")' function to >get information on the currently loaded models within the application. > >But I couldn't figure out how to access specific information like the >'modelCount' after the following command within Jmol 11.5.35: > > modelInfo = getProperty("modelInfo"); > >When I print the whole content with 'print modelInfo', I get a long list >of information.
