[Chimera-users] PDB

[Dougherty, Matthew T]

Hi,

When PDF files are read by Chimera and the session is written, the PDB data becomes part and parcel with the session files.  That is, Chimera does not go back to the PDB files when it reloads the session, it uses the PDB data within the session file instead; as contrasted to density volume files, which are referenced by the session file, and the density volume files reloaded when the session file is read by Chimera.

Is there a way to force the session file not to save the PDB internally to the session file, and instead reference and interact with it similar to the way volume files are managed?
