Re: [PyMOL] Accessing vertex normals from surface representation within PyMOL session

[Thomas H. <tho...@sc...>]

Hi Jared,

Apologies for the late reply. Unfortunately such an API doesn't exist. I agree that it would be very useful, I will file a feature request.

Cheers,
  Thomas

I know it's possible to get these by writing out and parsing .obj files, but to do this for an entire protein surface in a per-atom/residue fashion would be inefficient.  I imagine there must be a function to access this similar to "dump" for isosurfaces, but haven't been able to find it.
