You can change the color of any map or molecule to any color you wish by using the Map Colour and Bond Colour menus. After you have opened a map or molecular model simply go to the Edit menu at the top of the window; Map Colour will be the top option and Bond Colour will be the third from the top. Cheers, Jim
