Hello Pymoliacs,
I have been playing around with the lighting and gamma settings, but
can
never get a true black. The black always shows up as grey. Does anyone
know
how to get black to be black?

Hi Pete -
If what you want is a "flat black", i.e. just a silhouette of the
ribbon/surface/whatever, then set the color to black and turn the
specular reflections off ("set specular, 0"). This certainly looks
like rgb 0,0,0 to me (MacPymol v.0.94, OS X 10.2.8) and is completely
invisible in front of a black background. If you're looking for a
black with some texture visible, then you will get some gr(e/a)y in
with your black...
Hope this helps,
Matt
