Hi Tom,

thanks your your quick response and even quick implementation. I am already using the newest daily and really love the function. Just so that you get an idea: I constantly look at multimers where only parts (the interface) are probably predicted correctly. I have to identify them on the sequence basis to compare it between various predictions.
I would be also very helpful if the various selection in the sequence could be printed to the log file. Currently, I select the interface are in the PAE plot and than have to redraw the selection to get the sequence stretch. If you tool would display it's selection syntax for the chains in the log would be great. Like

Selected from PE
#1/B:481-697
#1/C:1-161

As you suggested lines for the differen chains would be helpfull - to better identify the interface.
...

Best
Jan
