[PyMOL] adding ego objects to an existing object/state

[Randy Z. <rz...@sj...>]

Hi, 

I am trying to add custom graphics to each frame of a trajectory. 

I use split_states to divide the trajectory (multi-pdb file)  into one state per frame, then attempt to load graphics objects into a specific frame:

cmd.load_cgo( obj, name, frame#) 

However, this simply appends the objects into their own states at the end - they are all visible.

I can find no example of attaching graphics to a specific existing state - is it possible?

It seems it must be, as graphics objects like ribbons are associated with a specific molecule ?

Thanks!

Randy
