Re: [PyMOL] command question RE printing out distances to text file
Thanks for your input Jared. I have not had a chance yet to try ANdrea's suggestions but will and will also try yours, and see what works best for me and get back to you and the forum--which has been so helpful!

If you want to keep all the distances without changing the rest of your script, you could open the file in “append” mode. f=open('distnew.txt',’a’) This way, each line will just get added to the bottom of the script. Keep in mind that if you want to start over with a new list of distances, you’ll need either to change the filename that gets opened (as you’ve done with “distnew.txt”) or delete the existing file. For this reason, I would go with one of the other approaches mentioned by Andreas, or look into using a list to define the atoms to which you’d like to measure the distance from the first atom, and loop through that list. Perhaps something like this (untested) bit of script would be useful, especially if you have many different atoms to check: first_atom = 'B///297/cb' second_atoms_list = ['A///17/cb', 'A///18/cb', 'A///19/cb'] with open("dist.txt", 'w') as f: for second_atom in second_atoms_list: f.write("%8.3f\n" % cmd.distance("tmp", first_atom, second_atom)) Good luck!

Re: [PyMOL] command question RE printing out distances to text file
Another follow up question to this. I decided to use the measure distance python script on the pymol wiki to do this, and I was able to do it successfully with a range of residues, but my question is about the output txt file. When I run the script I get the correct distances (all 3 of them) to show on the GUI but the text file that is generated (distnew.txt) only lists one distance--so perhaps the script needs to be modified for this as well for the residues measured? The original script is at the link http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Measure_Distance and my modified version is below. Suggestions appreciated!

Re: [PyMOL] command question RE printing out distances to text file
Hi Suzanne, you can use the get_distance command. It doesn't generate a distance object but prints the distance to the external window. http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Get_Distance Cheers, Thomas On 06 Jun 2014, at 23:03, Lapolla, Suzanne M (HSC) wrote: > Fellow Pymol Users: > I may have asked this question before...but if so have forgotten.
