Re: [PyMOL] Pymol Scenes to Movies

[Joel T. <joe...@ot...>]

Hi Chris,

I've been using this function a lot  in my teaching. You don't need to 
convert it to a movie, just save session as a .psw (pymol show file) 
with the scenes embedded in there. Then from within powerpoint just set 
up a hyperlink (Insert hyperlink) and point it to the .psw file. In 
presentation mode when you click on the hyperlink pymol automatically 
boots and you can scroll thru your scens like a full screen powerpoint 
presentation. You have to make sure that you have pymol installed on 
your presentation computer (and you have your psw file)  and just click 
OK when powerpoint warns of the perils of non-microsoft products. the 
final scene will return to your powerpoint presentation without any effort.

(Haven't tried it on a mac but should work fine)

Cheers

Joel
