&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;= Introduction to States =&lt;br /&gt;
Working with [[States]] in PyMOL is a very common task.  A State is one particular conformation of an object.  For example, one could load an NMR ensemble and set [[all_states]] or use the command [[Split_States]] to see all entries in the NMR file.  Another example could be the set of states from a molecular dynamic (MD) simulation.  Each conformer in the MD ensemble could be viewed as a state in PyMOL.  &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you are making a movie of a static coordinate set (such as a single crystal structure) then you have only one state. All objects in PyMOL can potentially consist of multiple states.  For movies, see [[Frame]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Using States in PyMOL =&lt;br /&gt;
* Upon loading an object you can separate each state into its own object with [[Split_States]].&lt;br /&gt;
* States can be [[color]]ed individually.&lt;br /&gt;
* One can show all states with the [[all_states]] setting.&lt;br /&gt;
* One can iterate over states using [[Iterate_State]] or change properties with states using the [[Alter_State]] function.&lt;br /&gt;
