[Chimera-users] Newlines in labelopt string

[Repic Matej]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the suggestion. I might just leave it as is, since getting the right label offset is probably more trouble than it is worth.

Best,

Hi Matej,
I think you’re out of luck.  Even if you manage to get a literal newline (or its Unicode equivalent) into an atom label, it doesn’t produce a newline, it just shows a boxed question mark instead.
There’s a horrible workaround that I barely want to mention.  You could open 4 copies of the structure and have each one show a different part of the label, with a different label offset for each.  You would have to change the labelopt before labeling each structure.  Like I said, horrible!

Hi everyone,

I have pretty long atom labels and it would be nice if I could split them
with newlines. I set labels with labelopt info %(name)s %(ee).2f %(ea).2f
%(er).2f

# what I have
C3 0.41 0.22 0.14

# what I want
C3
0.41
0.22
0.14

The obvious \n does not work. Any ideas?

Thank you,
