<div dir="ltr">Thanks Elaine for the help. I checked out ChimeraX & it is definitely much more user-friendly. The presence of the reply log at the right side really helps keep track of the actions one is performing and THANKS A LOT for the undo feature. I really miss it in Chimera. Still, I wonder if there is a way or a plugin to incorporate the "undo" command in chimera...</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Nov 8, 2021 at 9:35 PM Elaine Meng <<a href="mailto:meng@cgl.ucsf.edu" target="_blank">meng@cgl.ucsf.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi Prathvi,<br>
You can get all-by-all distances written to a file or the Reply Log by using Find Clashes/Contacts or the clashes command, by defining residue-A as the first set of atoms, residue-B as the second set of atoms, and and using a large negative cutoff value that will just get everything. For example, if it's residue 10 in chain A of model 0 versus residue 50 in chain B of model 1, the command to send info to the Log could be something like<br>
<br>
findclash #0:10.A test #1:50.B overlap -1000 log true<br>
<br>
(and/or use the saveFile option to save to file)<br>
<br>
Find Clashes/Contacts tool<br>

<br>
findclash command and its options<br>

<br>
ChimeraX (our newer program) also has a tool and command to do this same thing, if you're interested.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps,<br>
