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 -- ********************************************************************** Kevin Gardner, Ph.D. kevin.gard...@utsouthwestern.edu Associate Professor - Dept. of Biochemistry - UT Southwestern Med Ctr 214-645-6365/FAX: -6353 http://freedom7.swmed.edu
