[chimerax-users] two copies of labels

[Enrico Martinez]

Please see the picture enclosed (as you see there is a duplicate name
of glu-166). I've just checked my script- there is always one model
used for the visualization, so I believe it may be due to my pdb.
Actually to produce this pdb I fused dockins poses with pdb of
protein. Since I did flexible docking  the side chain of Glu-166 is
present in each frame of the ligand and the backbone of the same
residue is in each frame of the protein (now everything within the
same multi-model PDB file). I've just check in pym**l and it
recognizes the contacts without the duplications, so may be as a trick
I have to hide backbones in chimeraX ?

The second question about labels: as you may see on the screenshot
there are two labels placed using:
2dlab create title text "DOLCE (pdb XRAY), rep 1th" color red font
gothic xpos .02 ypos .99 size 40
2dlab create title2 text "Created by Enrico Martinez, 2022" color
indigo font Avenir xpos .02 ypos .02 size 33
I can not understand why they are always in the middle of the image
(on Y coordinates!) since the first label should be always on the top
(xpos .02 ypos .99 size 40) and the second one in the bottom (xpos .02
ypos .02 size 33). At least I see it like this in chimeraX gui. The
same is for the electrostatic diagram (-10.. 10), which emerges in the
central part of the image ...
Many thanks in advance!
Enrico

So if it is multiple models, make sure you close or at least hide any extra models. If it is multiple chains in the same model, then specify only the chain you want to label in the labeling command.
