This applies even if a several residues are selected, the whole selection just gets moved down the chain by one position. “rp” selects the previous residue, and “ri” selects all residues between two currently selected residues. These should help you move the selection along in a quick way.</div><div><br></div><div> Chimera keyboard shortcuts are not enabled by default. To enable them use the Chimera command “ac” (stands for accelerators) or use menu entry Tools / General Controls / Keyboard Shortcuts and click “Enable keyboard shortcuts”. If you use that menu entry then it will be remembered and shortcuts will be enabled when you start Chimera the next time. Shortcuts are all 2 letters and you don’t hit return after typing one. To get back to typing a command instead of a shortcut use the shortcut “cl” (command line).</div><div><br></div><div> Here’s the list of shortcuts from the Chimera documentation.</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/accelerators/alist.html">http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/accelerators/alist.html</a></div><div><br></div><div> The new ones will be in tomorrow’s daily build (dated Sept 27, 2014).</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Tom</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Sep 26, 2014, at 7:10 AM, Zhao, Yanyan wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: 12pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Hi, Tom.<br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Thank you so much for the chimera lecture yesterday. It is very helpful. </div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">I'm Yanyan from Baylor college of Medicine and is a rotation student in Wah's lab now. I'm using this software now. But I have a problem finding the keyboard shortcuts for selecting residues. I want to select residue one by one along the whole chain. But Ctl+left mouse click is a pain when dealing wit so many residues. Is there any shortcuts that I don't need to click the mouse and still can flow through the chain?<br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Thanks.<br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Best regards,<br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Yanyan<br></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
