Re: [PyMOL] exact molecule duplication keeping its spacial orientation

[Andrew C. <aco...@gm...>]

I think that the create command will do this

create newM, select statement

if I have a molecule named mol1 with three chains and I  want to make
a copy of chain c I would use

create new_C, mol1 & c. C
