[Chimera-users] "ligand" category for selection

[Hurt, Darrell (NIH/NIAID) [E]]

I guess one way to do it might be to use a different specifier for ligands, like maybe:

:/numAtoms<100

Subject: [Chimera-users] "ligand" category for selection

Hi Chimera friends,

I'm trying to use the attached MOL file (dopamine) in Chimera and I want to run a Python script on it. My script does some things to the molecule using selection categories. I'm trying to select this molecule as "ligand", but I get a "No atoms specified" error.

Alternatively, is there a way in Python to ignore the error if I get it and keep processing the rest of the script?

Thanks,
Darrell
