[COOT] python commands for showing / hiding a molecule

2011-06-17 Thread R.D. Oeffner

Dear all,

I'm sure there is an embarrasingly simple answer to this question but does anybody know how to show and hide a molecule programmatically from a python script run by Coot? 
I can easily load a molecule with the "read_pdb(filename)" command. But the "Display Manager" doesn't tell what command Coot is doing under the hood for hiding or showing the molecule.


Many thanks,

Rob

Pythonic:
set_mol_displayed(imol, state)

state is 1 for display and 0 for hide.

set_mol_active(imol, state) might also be useful in the same context.
