Managing Shared Molecular Files with Precision on SAMSON Connect

Collaborative molecular modeling often means sharing simulation results, structural models, and analysis documents with colleagues, collaborators, or students. But how do you ensure your work is shared securely, with the right level of access and control? SAMSON Connect offers a…

Struggling to Open Molecular Files? Here’s How to Import Them in SAMSON

OneAngstrom

Opening molecular structures from different file formats can be a challenge, especially when dealing with diverse data sources like PDBs, electron density maps, or proprietary modeling outputs. If you’ve ever received a structure file and SAMSON couldn’t open it, you’re…

Your Digital Lab Coat: Building a Scientific Profile with SAMSON Connect

OneAngstrom

In collaborative scientific environments, communication and visibility are key—not just among internal teams but across the broader research community. For molecular modelers, bioinformaticians, and computational chemists, your contributions often live in datasets, simulation files, and 3D models. Making those accessible…

Making Molecular Cinematics: How to Follow Atoms in Your Simulations

OneAngstrom

One of the most common challenges in molecular modeling is communicating dynamic molecular behavior effectively. Whether you’re analyzing conformational changes, studying interactions, or presenting your findings, static images rarely capture the full story. Animations help, but default camera motions can…

Permanent or Temporary? Making the Most of Measurement Labels in Molecular Modeling

OneAngstrom

Measuring distances, angles, and torsions between atoms is a common task in molecular modeling. It helps you validate structures, prepare simulations, and analyze chemical interactions. But if you’ve ever had to re-do the same measurement just because it disappeared when…

Filtering Molecular Models by Atom Counts: A Quick Guide for Structural Modelers

OneAngstrom

When working with large molecular datasets, one of the most common challenges modelers face is filtering out molecules based on their structural complexity. Whether you’re curating a dataset, setting up a simulation, or organizing your models, figuring out how to…

Understanding Selection Flags in SAMSON: What’s Actually Selected?

OneAngstrom

If you’ve ever found yourself puzzled by why a property model node appears selected (or not) inside SAMSON, you’re not alone. Understanding the difference between the selected attribute and the selectionFlag attribute can save time and confusion—especially when building automation…

Progressively Hiding Atoms for Clearer Molecular Presentations

OneAngstrom

In molecular modeling and presentations, visibility isn’t just about zooming or panning—it’s often about knowing what to show and when. A common obstacle faced by researchers and educators is how to direct focus within complex molecular structures. Showing too much…

Why You Can’t See That Atom: Understanding Visibility in Molecular Models

OneAngstrom

Have you ever loaded a molecular model, only to find that some atoms, bonds, or entire molecular groups seem to have vanished? If you’re working in SAMSON and this has puzzled you, you’re not alone. The cause is often related…

Choosing What You Click: Understand Selection Filters in SAMSON

OneAngstrom

When working on molecular systems with hundreds or thousands of atoms, fast and precise selection becomes critical. Do you really want to scroll endlessly or click around trying to highlight just the residues or atoms you care about? 🧬 In…
