Hi Ann,
you can set the radius of the "water" probe used to construct the
surface by setting solvent_radius to something smaller than 1.4. You
can either look in the pulldown menus for the settings panel to adjust
the value in a GUI or type:
set solvent_radius, 1.2 in the text window.
Good Luck
Scott

Hello,
I have been using PyMol for a few months now, and I am wondering if I
can adjust the radius about which the surface is calculated. I have
a very large protein (28,000 atoms) to model, and I would like to be
able to create a more evenly rounded surface. Not "realistic"
perhaps, but easier for students to see the larger view than marveling
at all the nooks and crannies. All suggestions greatly appreciated.
