[Jmol-developers] dots and frames

[Jan R. <jr...@im...>]

I want to compare matching surfaces and as a sandbox I used the three 
MODEL DNA binding protein structure 1lcd
http://www.imb-jena.de/cgi-bin/SCOPlnk.exe?JMOL=1lcd

the script was:
 frame 1;
 select dna and */1;define prev selected;select within(group,within(8.4, 
prev)) and protein and */1;set solvent on;dots on;
 select not within(5.4, prev) and */1;dots off;select prev;cartoon 1;
# this is the DNA interacting protein surface
frame 2;
 select protein and */2;define prev selected;select 
within(group,within(8.4, prev)) and nucleic and */2;set solvent on;dots on;
 select not within(5.4, prev) and */2;dots off;select prev;cartoon 1;
# this is the DNA surface in contact with the protein
frame 3;
 restrict not */3;
# I don't need this frame
anim mode loop;anim fps 2;anim on;

but not as expected, the dots surface persist while the rest of the 
rendering changes with frame.
