Get Coordinates I

There are several ways to extract or load atomic coordinates in PyMOL using the python API.

Extract coordinates using get_coords

New in PyMOL 1.7.4. This is the fastest method to extract coordinates from a selection. It considers the object rotation matrix.

xyz = cmd.get_coords('sele', 1)

Extract coordinates using get_coordset

New in PyMOL 1.7.4. Operates on the object-state level, not on selections. Does not consider the object rotation matrix. Retrieves coordinates in original order (e.g. PDB file atom order), not in sorted atom order. Faster than get_coords.

xyz = cmd.get_coordset(objectname, 1)

Extract coordinates using get_model

Before 1.7.4, this was the fastest method to extract coordinates. It considers the object rotation matrix.

xyz = cmd.get_model('sele', 1).get_coord_list()

Extract coordinates using iterate_state

This is much slower than the first ..→
