Did you know... Seq view format === OVERVIEW === The seq_view_format setting controls how PyMOL displays the sequence viewer. (To turn on the sequence viewer, type, set seq_view, on.) The available formats are currently: 0 = Display residues as single letter amino acid names 1 = Display residues as triple letter amino acid names 2 = Displays all atoms in each residue based on their atom name 3 = Displays each peptide chain SYNTAX # usage set seq_view_format, number # default set seq_view_format, 0 # triple letter amino acids set seq_view_format, 1 SEE ALSO Seq_view
