New Scripts Create objects for each molecule or chain in selection with split_object and split_chains
New Script Rotkit: is a collection of usefull scripts to place your dye/molecule where you want. It includes a very handy, rotation around line, function.
New Script Forster-distance-calculator: Can be used as a pymol-python shortcut to calculate the Förster distance between dyes from different companies. Useful, if the user have pymol installed, but not python. This script is meant as a tool to finding the right dyes, when labelling suitable positions for the site-directed cysteine mutants. See DisplacementMap.
New Script propka: Fetches the pka values for your protein from the propka server. propka generates a pymol command file that make pka atoms, color and label them according to your protein. Inspection is made easy by grouping the pka atoms in the pymol menu.

Pdb conect all

When saving a PDB file, the pdb_conect_all settings controls whether PyMOL writes CONECT records for all bonds, or only for HETATM bonds.

PDB files by convention do not contain bond information for standard polymer residues (ATOM records), because the connectivity is known for those.

If a PDB file contains at least one CONECT record for two atoms from ATOM records, then PyMOL will set pdb_conect_all=on as an object-level setting, to ..→
