Re: [COOT] WinCoot Issue

2010-05-14 Thread Bernhard Lohkamp
Hi Ian,

 I am trying to run wincoot on a Windows7 (64bit) machine . Coot installs
 and starts up fine, with all the tool bars just fine, but the display
 will not show anything ( keeps the desktop image in the coot window as i
 try and move it around). I have set all the desktop and graphics
 settings as suggested in the FAQ (using windows classic etc). Has anyone
 else been able to solve a similar problem?

Are you running Coot in Full Screen mode? And more importantly do you 
have an 'auto-hide' Windows taskbar. The latter supposedly causes this 
problem. So please try to disable the autohide Taskbar.

Hope this helps,

B

Re: [COOT] Coot 0.6.0 and sequence view

recently I installed Coot 0.6.0 and had so far no problems using it. 
Now I wanted to use it combined with shelxl refinement but encounter 
the problem that the Sequence view window in the Coot 0.6.0 version 
doesn´t present the chains as in earlier versions. I must number 
chains in Coot e.g. 1001, 2001, 3001 etc. for creating the 
shelxl .ins file. Now the sequence view in the new Coot version 
positions the chains along a number line and this line stops after 
3245, so that I cannot see e.g. the glycerols that are in the 3000 
range and the waters that are in the 4000 range. With the older Coot 
versions this was not an issue. There all chains were listed in rows 
below each other and there was no number line.


Confirmed - even in the latest 0.6.2 pre.

This needs to be fixed.

Thanks,

Paul.


[COOT] PyGTK in standalone OS X builds

2010-05-14 Thread Nathaniel Echols
When I use the 0.6.1 package from Bill's web site, I get this error when I
try to start the Python scripting GUI:

COOT_PYTHON_DIR was defined to be /usr/local/xtal/coot64/share/coot/python
  but no PyGtk and hence no coot_gui.

Not sure what to do about this, because it appears to have the module
installed:

nat:~  ls /usr/local/xtal/coot64/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
README  cairo  gtk-2.0  numpy  numpy-1.3.0-py2.6.egg-info  pygtk.pth
 pygtk.py  pygtk.pyo

thanks,
Nat

2010-05-14 Thread William G. Scott
Check /usr/local/xtal/coot64/bin/coot

to see if I set $PYTHONPATH right.

It should have /usr/local/xtal/coot64/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0
