 I've updated it on the Wiki.

 
 So anyone likes to try git and update the repo?

This actually highlights a weakness with trying to use git with the 
PyMOLWiki script library: updates.

Until a script is written to automatically update git from the 
PyMOLWiki, I don't think git will help us too much--and in fact may 
cause confusion.  The wiki already stores meta-information (comments, 
tags, see also's, etc) along with the code and it does have, albeit 
rather non-specific, versioning built in.

So, summarizing: I think it's a great idea, but it will require effort 
on someone's part before this'll become widely used for the wiki.

Thanks,

[PyMOL] create double bonds in small molecules

2009-05-14 Thread Thomas S. Leyh, Ph. D.
Hi,

I've been trying to get PyMOL to display a double bond at the position of 
the vinyl in the attached, small-moleculePDB for some time.  The PDB was 
generated by converting a smiles representation of isopentenly diphosphate 
(obtained from PubChem) using Corina.  The number of attached atoms at the 
vinyl group is correct, but PyMOL doesn't display the double bond.  Cycling the 
bond valence produces a single-bond version (with added protons), but stops 
there - it won't cycle through triple, double, single.  Downloaded a PDB of 
fumarate that does display double bonds in response to Set Valence - so, my 
version of PyMOL (1.1beta2, Vista environment) seems fine.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Tom,

 

set valence

 

edit_mode

 

Ctrl-right-click on the bond

 

Ctrl-W

 

seems to do the trick.  Perhaps there's a problem with the version of
PyMOL you're using?

 

Cheers,

Warren

[PyMOL] POVRAY Usage

2009-05-14 Thread Sean Law

Hi All,

While ray tracing a scene with 10 x-large proteins in grid mode at 3600, 3600 
(width, height) I ran out of RAM (2 GB).  I tried it again by writing 
everything into a script and using pymol -qc which still ran out of memory.  I 
read somewhere that POVRAY is less of a memory hog so I installed the latest 
version and simply modified my script to ray 3600, 3600, renderer=1 to use 
POVRAY.  Everything went smoothly but I noticed that the image generated from 
POVRAY looked different than the native ray traced structure using PyMOL's ray 
tracer (simply invoking ray without dimensions in PyMOL).  Specifically, the 
light reflections appeared to be dulled in POVRAY and spheres that were further 
away from the camera view are not distinguishable.  I've posted a comparison on 
the PyMOLWiki:

http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Povray_vs._pymol

Firstly, I apologize as I am completely new to the world of POVRAY and I just 
assumed that the image produced from either method would give identical/close 
results but I much prefer the look of the PyMOL ray-tracer.  Is there an easy 
way to set everything up the same way as the PyMOL ray-tracer but for POVRAY?  
Thank you for your time.

Sean

Re: [PyMOL] POVRAY Usage

2009-05-14 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Sean,

Unfortunately, getting a good image through POV-Ray requires editing
the POV-Ray file. You can write the scene to disk with the following
commands

pov=open(protein.pov,w)
pov.write(cmd.get_povray()[0])
pov.write(#include \povray.inc\)
pov.close()

open(povray.inc,w).write(cmd.get_povray()[1])

Then, take your favorite editor (under windows, you can use the
POV-Ray editor) and make some changes:

1. There's a line starting with #defaults. Remove that and replace it with:

#default {
finish {
ambient .15
diffuse .5
specular 1
roughness .001
reflection { .5 metallic } // Remove this line for less
glossyness and faster tracing
}
}

2. There's a light statement, which says:
light_source{4000.0001,4000.0001,9960.  rgb1.0,1.0,1.0}.
Replace it with:

light_source
{
   20,10,0
   rgb 2
   area_light 5,5,0,5,5
   adaptive 1
   jitter
}

This usually works for me :)

Note that the trace may now take some time. Remove the metallic
reflection for faster tracing.

I hope it helps. POV-Ray is cool, but rather complicated.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

Re: [PyMOL] POVRAY Usage

2009-05-14 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Sean,

Sorry about that. Tried from the top of my head and the evening had
past too far for that already. These vectors define the directions to
distribute the lights - you basically create an area of light sources.
So you need to set two vectors:

area_light 5,0,0,0,5,0,5,5

This will generate 25 lights in a five by five array perpendicular to
the Pymol viewing axis (which is always along z).

Cheers,

Tsjerk

 Tsjerk,

 Thanks for the quick response.  I noticed that after area_light there
 should be two axis vectors (according to the povray website) but you've only
 specified one.  Should I just repeat the same axis twice?
