Dear all,

I have a problem loading a pdb file into a molecule previously read in as a
pdb file using a tcl script. After reading in the first pdb file, the
connectivity of atoms is correctly displayed. After loading the second pdb
file however, all the display shows in points, so bonds seem to be lost. (I
use the standard stick representation.)
I haven't experienced this before and the same thing does not happen when I
use the 'File>Load data into molecule' option of the VMD Main window.
Does anyone know how I can solve this?

Thanks,
Marc

PS Start of my tcl script I load using the TkConsole:
mol new C:/TEMP/b3lyp/rc1-b3lyp-1.4.pdb waitfor all
mol addfile C:/TEMP/b3lyp/rc1-b3lyp-1.3.pdb waitfor all
mol addfile C:/TEMP/b3lyp/rc1-b3lyp-1.2.pdb waitfor all
mol addfile C:/TEMP/b3lyp/rc1-b3lyp-1.1.pdb waitfor all

(Doesn't matter whether I use 'waitfor all' or not)
