0.75A of what? please be more specific and explain (again, we all
have a short memory) how to reproduce the behavior.

well, if you do _not_ activate 'update selections' the atom selections
are done at the very first step and then never evaluated again.
if you activate 'update selections' they are re-evaluated in every
step. this is the same behaviour as for the selection of
representations for visualization.

hope that explains it.

cheers,
