&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The [[Group]] command creates or updates a &amp;quot;group&amp;quot; object.  The grouped objects are collected underneath a '''+''' sign in the object tree (see images).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Group]] is tremendously helpful with multi-state or multi-structure sessions.  Wildcards work great, for example:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# put all of objState into the group &amp;quot;ensemble&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
group ensemble, objState*&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:group_off.png|Three EF-Hand proteins loaded into PyMOL&lt;br /&gt;
Image:group_on1.png|Applied the group command to the proteins via: &amp;quot;group efHand, *&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:group_on2.png|The plus was clicked and expanded to show the hierarchy of objects.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Usage ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
group name, members, action&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Examples ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Creating, opening and closing ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, 1cll 1ggz 1sra&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# allow addition and removal from the group&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, open&lt;br /&gt;
# disallow addition/removal from the group&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, close&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== More advanced usage of groups and naming ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# names with dots are treated special&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
set group_auto_mode, 2&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# load the example protein&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
load $TUT/1hpv.pdb, 1hpv.other&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# create the new entry called &amp;quot;.protein&amp;quot; in group 1hpv&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
extract 1hpv.protein, 1hpv.other and polymer&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# create &amp;quot;.ligand in the 1hpv group&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
extract 1hpv.ligand, 1hpv.other and organic&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# supports wildcards&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
show sticks, *.ligand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hide lines, *.protein&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
show surface, *.protein within 6 of *.ligand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
show lines, byres *.protein within 4 of *.ligand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
set two_sided_lighting&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
set transparency, 0.5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
set surface_color, white&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Also, to lexicographically sort the names in the control panel:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
order *, yes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Notes ==&lt;br /&gt;
Group objects can usually be used as arguments to commands.  It can be processed as a group or as a selection, in which case all the atoms from all objects in the group will be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== See Also ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Group]] command creates or updates a &amp;quot;group&amp;quot; object.  The grouped objects are collected underneath a '''+''' sign in the object tree (see images).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Group]] is tremendously helpful with multi-state or multi-structure sessions.  Wildcards work great, for example:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# put all of objState into the group &amp;quot;ensemble&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
group ensemble, objState*&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Usage ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
group name, members, action&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Example ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, 1cll 1ggz 1sra&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# allow addition and removal from the group&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, open&lt;br /&gt;
# disallow addition/removal from the group&lt;br /&gt;
group efHand, close&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Notes ==&lt;br /&gt;
Group objects can usually be used as arguments to commands.  It can be processed as a group or as a selection, in which case all the atoms from all objects in the group will be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
