Re: [PyMOL] Label charge sites, termini, check contrast

[Ali S. K. <aku...@un...>]

Hi Neena, 

A simple way to label in PyMOL is to simply select the atom you want and enter the following command:
label sele, "what you want to label"

I.e. for the N:
label sele, "N"

PyMOL can render the special ⨁ you are using, through unicode:
label sele, '\u2A01'
Visit the wiki for more info: https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Label_font_id

The labels may be small, to change size, 
set label_size, 30
Change the 30 to what size you need

Finally, the labels will likely be off in position, the easiest way to change position is by using the editing mode:
This helpful video shows this around 3:30 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBFzJ3ql4qU&ab_channel=MolecularMemory)

Cheers,
