Re: [PyMOL] (small) Pymol feature request--filter for edit settings window
Hello Michelle,
You can also edit the SetEditor.py file. The file is in the
'/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pmg_tk' directory on linux and add the
feature. It can be done by adding to small portion of add-on code to the
file. If you do so:
Keep a copy of the original file in a safe place !
Here is a part of the modified file:
###
class SetEditor:
def __init__(self,app):
self.app = app
self.list = []
for a in pymol.setting.get_index_list():
self.list.append(%-30s %s%(pymol.setting._get_name(a),
cmd.get_setting_text(a,'',-1)))
self.index = {}
c = 0
for a in pymol.setting.get_name_list():
self.index[a] = c
c = c + 1
self.dialog = Pmw.SelectionDialog(self.app.root,title=Settings,
buttons = ('Edit', 'Done'),
defaultbutton='Edit',
scrolledlist_labelpos=N,
label_text='Double click to edit',
scrolledlist_items = self.list,
command = self.command)
self.dialog.geometry(500x400)
# start of the add-on
interior = self.dialog.interior()
self.filter = Pmw.EntryField(interior,
labelpos = 'w',
label_text= 'Filter:',
validate = None,
command = self.filter_list)
self.filter.pack()
# end of the add-on
self.listbox = self.dialog.component('scrolledlist')
self.listbox.component('listbox').configure(font=app.my_fw_font)
self.dialog.protocol('WM_DELETE_WINDOW',self.cancel)
app.my_show(self.dialog)
# start of the add-on
def filter_list(self):
self.list = []
for a in pymol.setting.get_index_list():
if self.filter.getvalue() in pymol.setting._get_name(a):
self.list.append(%-30s %s%(pymol.setting._get_name(a),
cmd.get_setting_text(a,'',-1)))
self.dialog.setlist(self.list)
self.dialog.update()
# end of the add-on
def cancel(self,event=None):
self.command(result='Done')
###
This code works fine on my linux box. If you have some problem, don't hesitate
to ask me !
Cheers,

While we're discussing ways to make our favorite program a little
better, I had an idea I thought I'd throw out there...
While making some figures the other day, I found myself scrolling
endlessly through the edit settings menu (under Setting -- Edit All) a
number of times, mostly to locate a relatively small number of settings
related to ray tracing. This got me thinking about a way to improve
access to the many wonderful features that have been added to PyMOL.
The solution I came up with is a filter line which could be placed
directly above the window listing all the settings. Users could then
type a word, say ray or cartoon, and only the settings containing
this word would be shown.
The best example of a program containing this feature is the
about:config window in Firefox. When you open a browser and type
about:config instead of an address, a window containing hundreds of
settings appears. At the top is a filter bar which you can use to pare
down the number of settings listed below.
I think this would be a great addition to PyMOL and would help users
familiarize themselves with the many new settings which have been (and
will be) implemented. :)
Perhaps others have even better solutions to this problem. The use of a
filter is just the first idea which came to my mind. I think it would be
relatively easy to implement, although my python programming skills are
somewhat limited.
Thanks,
Michelle Gill

Re: [PyMOL] (small) Pymol feature request--filter for edit settings window
Hey Michelle, Ezequiel Panepucci wrote grepset, a little script that allows you to do exactly what you want and even more. No need even to open the edit settings menu, just type 'grepset ray', and you're cruising. Get grepset from http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Grepset and put it into your .pymolrc file as 'run /path/to/grepset.py'. Life is good.
