DESCRIPTION

alter_state changes the atomic coordinates of a particular state using the python evaluator with a separate name space for each atom. The symbols defined in the name space are:

x,y,z

USAGE

alter_state state,(selection),expression

EXAMPLES

Alter the X coordinate for all

  • alter_state 1,(all),x=x+5

Shift the coordinates of the entire PDB file

  • alter_state 1,selection,(x,y,z)=(newx,newy,newz)
