[Chimera-users] possibilities to save parts of models (selection)?

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Sebastian,
The write command has a "selected" option to write only the selected  
atoms, and a "displayed" option to write only the displayed atoms:

There are analogous options on the GUI (File... Save PDB).

I hope this helps,
Elaine
