What do you intend the id_string to mean? Do you really mean that id_string is the model id? That would put each single marker in its own model. I see that the second digit (e.g. 4 in 1.4.2) corresponds to your frame number. I'm guessing that each of the marker sets in your file is tracking a single object in 3D light microscopy and the third digit (e.g 2 in 1.4.2) is an id number of that object.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">You also have id="1" for all markers in the first marker set named track_1. Every marker must have a different id, this id is the residue number and atom name for the marker.
