Hi Elaine:
I'll try your advice as soon as possible. However, turning mode1 out
of view in model window while playing movie for model 1, the centroid
for mode1 is still seen above model 0 and the trace for centroid for
model 0 . What I could not do was to select the centroid for model 1,
in order to highlight it. Command "sel :residuename" always selected
the centroid for model 0.

For example, if I had protein models #0 and #1 and also centroids for each of those, I could undisplay the protein part only of #0:
