Hi Sean, You're right. The code should be:
load structure.pdb #load trajectory with 212 states load structure.dcd #Use half the number of frames and hope that states get skipped by PyMOL mset 1 x106 mview store, 1, state=1 mview store, 106, state=212 Interestingly, PyMOL doesn't like the user assigning the object state that way, it prefers the global state set. I'll find out why.
