Script Reference These methods and properties are provided in order to conform to embedded molecules which use scripting. Most of them are not implemented, and are here merely to prevent breakage of existing scripts. They may be implemented in the future if this is requested. The methods and properties described below are provided to give backward compatability to RasMol and various other programs whose APIs conform to this model. However, no source code from any of these programs was used to provide these functions. Parameter Types
____________________________________________________________ boolean

syntax
description
Takes the name or hex value of a colour. The complete list of colour names can be found here: W3C SVG Colour Keywords Hex values are 00 - FF for each of red, green and blue. details

alias moveto ____________________________________________________________ moveto
syntax
description
The moveto command rotates the molecule to a predefined orientation. details
Two formats can be used. In each, the first (optional) parameter specifies the number of seconds during which the molecule should rotate smoothly from the current orientation to the new orientation. A 0 for this first parameter specifies an instantaneous reorientation. In conjunction with "show orientation" this command allows reading and restoring specific user-specified orientations. moveto timeSeconds FRONT|BACK|LEFT|RIGHT|TOP|BOTTOM A simple use of moveTo just has six optional directions. moveto timeSeconds {x y z} degrees zoomPercent transX transY {x y z} rotationRadius navigationCenter navTransX navTransY navDepth In the second option, the second parameter is a coordinate {x, y, z} defining the axis relative to the default orientation about which the molecule should be rotated. The third parameter is the counterclockwise (right-hand) rotation in degrees about this axis. "moveto 0 {0 0 0} 0" rotates the model to the default orientation (equivalent to "reset"). If the angle parameter is 0 but any one of x, y, or z is nonzero, then no reorientation occurs (because the axis has been specified, but the rotation is 0 degrees). Following these parameters is the zoom setting in percent, the X- and Y-positions of the rotation center on the screen, as percent of width and height, respectively. The actual molecular coordinate of the rotation center along with the rotation radius (which determines the magnification associated with ZOOM 100) are next. The final parameters define the navigation center molecular coordinate, its X- and Y- position on the screen in percent, and the depth of the navigation point in percent of model depth (100 = front, 0 = rear). In conjunction with "show/save/restore orientation" this command allows reading and restoring specific user-specified orientations. moveto timeSeconds {x y z} degrees 0 transX transY (atom expression) 0 zoomAdjustment navigationCenter navTransX navTransY navDepth If the zoom setting prior to translation positions is 0, and an atom expression is used for the point, then the moveTo can be designed to automatically zoom to the scale that would fill the screen with that set of atoms. The optional zoom adjustment is in the form +n, -n, n, or /n, as for zoomTo. moveto timeSeconds {x y z} degrees (atom expression) 0 zoomAdjustment navigationCenter navTransX navTransY navDepth If no translation is involved, then there is also no need for the zoom setting of 0 prior to the atom expression. examples
Examples: in new window using 1crn.pdb moveto 0 1 0 0 -90; view from top moveto 0 0 1 0 90; view from right moveto 0 0 1 0 -90; view from left moveto 2 1 0 0 90; view from bottom with smooth 2-second transition moveto 0 0 0 0 0 200; default orientation with instantaneous transition and a zoom of 200%

syntax
description
Rotate the molecule about the specified axis. details
Permitted values for the axis parameter are "x", "y" and "z". The integer parameter states the angle in degrees for the structure to be rotated. For the X and Y axes, positive values move the closest point up and right, and negative values move it down and left, respectively. For the Z axis, a positive rotation acts clockwise and a negative angle anti-clockwise. Alternatively, this command may be used to specify which rotations the mouse or dials will control. If 'rotate bond true' is selected, the horizontal scroll bar will control rotation around the axis selected by the 'bond src dst pick' command. If 'rotate all true' is selected, and multiple molecules have been loaded, then all molecules will rotate together. In all other cases, the mouseand dials control the the rotation of the molecule selected by the 'molecule n' command. examples

The default time is 1 second; indicating no center position results in simple, smooth zooming; indicating no zoom defaults to twice the current zoom setting. zoomto [time-in-seconds] (atom expression) or {x y z} [percent-zoom] Smoothly transitions to the indicated zoom setting over the course of the specified number of seconds. zoomto [time-in-seconds] (atom expression) or {x y z} + or - delta Adds or subtracts an absolute amount from the current zoom setting over the course of the specified number of seconds. zoomto [time-in-seconds] (atom expression) or {x y z} * or / factor Multiplies or divides the current zoom setting by the indicated factor over the course of the specified number of seconds. zoomto [time-in-seconds] (atom expression) or {x y z} 0 Zooms to the setting that fills the screen with the designated atoms.
