[Jmol-users] set backgroundModel "filemodel"

[rob y. <nex...@ho...>]

Hi all,
I am loading 2 separate files. The 1st file contains 1 structure, and the 2nd file contains multi-models. In an animation, I'd like to keep the structure in the 1st file constant in the background, while playing through the models in the 2nd file. I am loading the 1st file first, then using loading append to load in the 2nd file. I know the function "set backgroundModel" is my friend here, but I couldn't get the right format here. From the doc, "For a multifile context, the model must be give in "file.model" format." So if the 1st file has the name "f1.pdb", I've tried 'set backgroundModel "f1.pdb.1";' without any luck. Any suggestions? Thank you as always.

-Rob
