<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Shawn, Tom, Eric,<br>
<br>
thanks a lot for the help and for pointing me in the right
direction. Finally I had some time and I've come up with a script
that adjusts the volume level threshold from the active model to
all opened models. For one model it's not a problem, but when one
wants to adjust the levels for a series of volumes (for example
after a 3d classification run in relion), it becomes cumbersome to
do so for the ~50 models/run. Maybe other EM users find it handy,
that's why I'd like to share it.<br>
It took me quite some time to find the right functions, which do
the actual measurement. Got lost in the OpenModels.h, volume.py,
volumedialog.py, and the gui scripts. The rest was easy :-) Thanks
again for your help!<br>

To supplement Shawn and Tom's answers, obviously it would be best
if everything were documented, but in the absence of that if there
is a command that implements something similar to what you want to
do, you can chase it down in the code base by:
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>a)
looking at Midas/__init__.py and see if it's one of the
functions in there (they're arranged approximately
alphabetically by command name), and if it's not in there…</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>b)
grep share/*/ChimeraExtension.py for the command name to find
which module defines the command. Then look in that module's
ChimeraExtension.py to see what file/method in the module
implements the command.</div>

<div>I am not aware that there is a python library
reference. If there is, I would appreciate a pointer to
it as well. Here are a few links I have found helpful
when writing python code for Chimera:</div>

This shows how to execute command line commands, it may be
what you want:<br class="">

<div>This goes through how to make plugins and such, but
is helpful since the examples show more of the API:<br>

<br>
I am trying to write a simple python script that will
iterate over opened volumes and adjust the contour
level to a certain mass. This shouldn't be more than
~10 lines. However, I can't find chimera's python
library reference to look up the class structure and
operator names.<br>
<br>
Does someone know how, for example, set volume level
to 0.01 would look like in python?<br>
in the command line it would be for all models: volume
#0-99 level 0.01<br>
<br>
for models I've found chimera.openModels and then you
can list over them, but that's about it.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Martin Turk<br>
