[Chimera-users] PDBFILE statistics

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Alex,
I believe that the command and menu selection methods automatically omit the rotamers, so you if your waters are named HOH you could just use command

sel #0 & ~:hoh

I tested that by using the command before and after showing rotamers for some residue, and both gave the same number of atoms and bonds selected.
Best,
Elaine

Write List).   The status line also reports the number of selected atoms, temporarily.
