Re: [PyMOL] iPad pymol questions

Hi Steve,

I'll suggest a workaround to having pymol cache the files:

(1) Install the DropBox app
(2) Favorite your PDB files in that app, this will cache those files
locally within the DropBox app for offline access
(3) From the dropbox app, you can open PDB files in Pymol using the
button in the upper right corner, since the dropbox app has cached
them locally, PyMol just reads the file and doesn't need the internet

I know how to search pbd for structures,and how to view structures I have already found and saved to my pymol app folder on Dropbox.  But I need to show some structures to an audience where I may not have wifi access for my iPad, and I would like to have the pymol iPad app locally save structure files so I can use them when I am off line.  Is there a way to do this with the iPad?
