Hi all:
        I'd like to set a value for a selection of residues within an
object --- which I think might be tough given the docs on the set
command, but I'm open to suggestions.  The particular case here is
setting cartoon_transparency, which I'd like to use to make a subset
of residues in a protein more transparent than the neighbors.  This
works like a charm if I read the protein segments in as individual
objects initially, but any attempts to make a selection on a single
object and set characteristics from there results in the whole
object being modified.

        I know that this is explicitly listed in the documentation
for set, so I'm looking for a workaround, e.g. splitting the
first object into multiples, etc.?

        FWIW, running MacPyMOL v0.98 --- on one of the last PowerPC-
driven Macs :)

Sincerely,
Kevin
