[PyMOL] problem with dist
Hi,I'm running MacPyMOL 0.95 on a G3 Lombard/BronzeKeyboard Powerbook, OSX 10.2.8. The ref manual says to measure distances you can ctrl-shift left, and then right click to select the positions to measure. I can ctrl-shift left click to select the first atom, but ctrl-shift right click doesnt do anything. My workaround is to ctrl-shift left click twice, which displays the path to the atom in the command history window. I can then copy paste them in behind a dist command. Can anyone else confirm this behaviour? Thanks, --Michael
[PyMOL] Pymol Scalabity - max atom display limit
I am trying to use PyMol for doing viz on Nano scale structures which have very different bonding structures than protiens,etc. So I will not be using any bond generation algorithms. I provide connect info with atoms info in pdb files which seems to be doing good. I have a very general question.I am aware there is no staright forward answer to this though. I am just wondering how many atoms can PyMol handle on a modest machine. (say 2 Ghz, Geforce 4 - 128mb, 1 GB ram). OR What is the biggest dataset you might have loaded and did not have considerable problem? Please let me know, your answers will help me in taking an educated guess on Pymols limits. Thanks --Amit
