Dear All,

I got a simple question here, how to change radius of CYLINDRICAL
HELICES(I actually want to make default cylindrical helices thiner).
Thanks very much in advance
Best regards
yibin


this is to turn on cylyndrical helices and make them thinner:

#### show alpha helices as cyclinders
set cartoon_cylindrical_helices, 1
set cartoon_helix_radius, 1.7


You can also do similar things with beta strands if you don't like the default sizes:

#### for beta strands default 1.4 and 0.4
set cartoon_rect_length, 1.0
set cartoon_rect_width, 0.3


Good Luck,
Scott
