Hi, I like the .jmol file which contain everything to display a model and added data in a certain state. It is a quick and easy way to share some findings in a model with colleagues. And it is obviously more powerful then an image because it allows manipulation with all of Jmol's powers. However it allows just one state. Often there are multiple interesting things in a model and I like to include some jmol script functions to change the orientation, zoom in, etc. or just define multiple sets of interesting amino acids. A recent change excludes user defined functions and atom selections from the state [1]. As far as I understand it the Jmol 'state' is mainly to reproduce the visual state and looking more for a way to reproduce something like a working environment or session. I know that I could just have an extra script file which manage myself in addition to the .jmol file, but I would rather have a single file created in one step.
So, my question is: Is there another way to include user-defined functions and variables in .jmol files or/and the state? Best Alexander [1] #version=12.1.16 # bug fix: naming functions or variables after Jmol token names fails or acts unexpectedly # (fixing this bug required script compiler changes, and that lead to the # two new features below) # # bug fix: User variables and functions removed from state because they are # no longer necessary and also indeterminant in terms of the "state". # Originally these were needed because ECHO and DEFINE can be dynamic # -- which is still true -- and because certain commands such as ISOSURFACE # were being saved in the state just as their strings instead of their # intepreted code. But that was changed for 12.0, and this fix also changes # ECHO to be saved in its current state, not its dynamic state. While # dynamic DEFINE types may include variables, they aren't really # part of the "state" per se and aren't needed to recreate the state. So # they are dropped from the state with this fix as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d _______________________________________________ Jmol-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-users
