Use match-> align to get a structural superposition and sequence alignment, then set your alignment type to AL2CO. Go to render by attribute and then hit the select by attribute tab. Select the range from 0-whatever your maximum is. Should be around 4 if you've got any conserved tryptophans. That will select all invariant residues.
