|-
! New Script
| [[ColorByDisplacement]] Do an (specified) alignment of residues between an open and closed form of a protein. Calculates the distance displacement between each residue and saves it as its b-factor. Then it color according to the b-factor. Quite neat feature for rotation axis in proteins.

| [[DisplacementMap]] Calculates CA-CA distances between Open and Closed form of protein. Output best suggestions for site-directed mutagenesis for EPR/FRET experiments. Make distance matrix file, and output a gnuplot plot file for easy visualisation of interesting residues. Parses best suggestions back to pymol, for visual inspections.

| [[Center Of Mass]] has been re-written to calculate either the center-of-geometry or (mass-weighted) center-of-mass for a given selection and represents that selection as a pseudoatom (rather than a CGO sphere).

New Scripts Create objects for each molecule or chain in selection with split_object and split_chains
New Script Rotkit: is a collection of usefull scripts to place your dye/molecule where you want. It includes a very handy, rotation around line, function.
New Script Forster-distance-calculator: Can be used as a pymol-python shortcut to calculate the Förster distance between dyes from different companies. Useful, if the user have pymol installed, but not python. This script is meant as a tool to finding the right dyes, when labelling suitable positions for the site-directed cysteine mutants. See DisplacementMap.
New Script propka: Fetches the pka values for your protein from the propka server. propka generates a pymol command file that make pka atoms, color and label them according to your protein. Inspection is made easy by grouping the pka atoms in the pymol menu.

Did you know...

Supercell

Included in psico
This command or function is available from psico, which is a PyMOL extension.

Module psico.xtal
Example with 2 unit cells in c-direction, created with: supercell 1,1,2,2x19

supercell can display multiple copies of the unit cell. Can also fill the unit cell (and its copies) with symmetry mates.
