Hi Virasak, In Pymol you can change the element type to match your needs: alter n. si, elem="si" Hope it helps, Tsjerk On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 2:44 PM, Virasak Dungsrikaew wrote: > Hi Tsjerk, > > You are right. In my work, I almost working with XYZ format and all > programs that I used is wor

Hi Virasak, It goes a bit far to call it a bug. It's a problem with the xyz format. It only has names for atoms, not element types, and Pymol can't go guessing, otherwise any CA would end up as calcium :S Cheers, Tsjerk On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 2:30 PM, Virasak Dungsrikaew wrote: > Hi Tsjerk, >

[PyMOL] Saving molecule to pdb changes Si to S

Dear all, I am using PyMOL 1.2r2 on Ubuntu 10.10. When I click 'Save Molecule...' from 'File' menu and select a molecule that contained 'Si' atom, the output pdb will show 'S' instead of 'Si' on the right most column. I also try this with mol format, the result is the same. Is this a known bug or
