<div><br></div><div>Does that MODEL here mean conformations? Why the docked_conformer (results from DOCK with various conformations) contains NO models according to chimera? I am sorry that I did not mean questioning, but curious.</div></blockquote><br></div><div>As far as Chimera is concerned, there is very little difference between a model opened from a PDB file and one opened from a Mol2 file. chimera.openModels.list() cannot be empty if Chimera is actually showing any structures. Is it? (when you open the Mol2 file normally)? Maybe you need to send along your Mol2 file and your script...</div><div><br></div><div>--Eric</div><br><div>
