Re: [PyMOL] surface area calculation

[Kaushik Raha]

To calculate surface area for a defined object from the PyMOL command 
line type:

print cmd.get_area("obj")
where obj is the name of your object.

for arginines:

create ARG, resn ARG
print cmd.get_area("ARG")

Kaushik.

Is it possible to get pymol to calculate surface area for a defined

arginines.

Thanks,
