Is it not possible to specify the ligand without using the segname? You can use residue number, chain number, residue name… are you saying that there is more than one residue in the same chain with both the same name and the same number?<br>

For example, how visualizing the trajectory of a particular ligand in a 24-chain protein assembly? I can do that with vmd, but at the price of a less clear-cut trajectory and poorer graphics.<br>
