Did you know... %PAGE% create creates a new molecule object from a selection. It can also be used to create states in an existing object. USAGE create name, (selection) [, source_state [, target_state ]] name = object to create (or modify) selection = atoms to include in the new object source_state (default: 0 - copy all states) target_state = int: -1 appends after last state {default: 0} PYMOL API cmd.create(string name, string selection, int source_state, int target_state,int discrete) NOTES If the source and target states are zero (default), all states will be copied. Otherwise, only the indicated states will be copied. Target state -1 will append new states. User Comments/Examples EXAMPLES <source lang="python"> merging two multi-state objects with the create command obj1 has 25 states and obj2 has 40 states load multi_state_obj1, obj1 load multi_state_obj2, obj2 merge the two multi-state objects back to back into obj3 0 ..→
