Re: [PyMOL] Problem launching PyMOL from macOS 13.7.1

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

Hello Dr. Saper,

This does appear to be a bug and I was able to reproduce the same behavior
on my Mac. Opening the same pdb repeatedly in the same window should result
in states being added, but there's no reason why PyMOL should be doing this
when double clicking on files. It seems like PyMOL is loading the
structure twice for some reason but this pattern doesn't repeat if you
continue to open the same file.

I will create a ticket to investigate further and hopefully have a fix for
this in the near future. In the meantime, you can delete the second state
using "delete_states {your object name}, 2", though I recognize this is
annoying to type each time and is not a long term solution.

Thanks for reporting this,
Thomas Stewart
