Hi,
I'm aware of two ways to do this:
by writing the colour as a word, e.g:
color white, (mypdbfile//A/*/*)
which will colour a whole chain.
Or by using rgb colours, e.g:
set_color newcolor0 = [1,1,1]; color newcolor0, (mypdbfile//A/2/*)
which will colour individual residues (residue 2 in this case)
Pymol should accept a script containing such lines.
Hope that helps,
Rob

Dear Everyone
Slightly off topic...
I am trying to colour a structure by B factor in Pymol. More
specifically I am colouring conserved residues (value in b factor). I
want to use 4 colours - say white, yellow, orange, red. However it
seems that Pymol now only allows 3 colours to be used - I tried the
script from the Wiki site, but Pymol will not accept the 4 rgb
colours.
Does anyone have an idea how I can colour with 4 colours (but not
rainbow too confusing).
Thanks in advance for any help
Best
Gina
