Hello,
When calling "molinfo top get filename", the filename returned is
different depending on the method in which I choose to load the molecule.
If I use the file browser dialogue, molinfo returns the absolute path,
however if I use the console with "mol new" it returns the relative path:
vmd> mol new ../../../../test/test.pdb
vmd > molinfo top get filename
../../../../test/test.pdb
detrimental in the event that I want to reload the molecule like so and if
I've changed working directories...
proc reload { mol } {
lassign {*}[molinfo $mol get filename] psf dcd
mol delete $mol
mol new $psf type psf waitfor all
mol addfile $dcd waitfor all
}
Can this be fixed such that "mol new" will set the correct file name to one
that is the absolute path of the loaded files. I realize this may present
complications since mol new can be used to create an empty molecule, but
the behavior regarding the file names is rather unexpected.
Thanks!
