Hi Anders,

You can add a property value to the b-factor or occupancy field in the pdb file. Then you can color using the spectrum command. Just have a look at the help for that.

For real fancy coloring, either in some way construct a 3D map, which you can read in in Pymol (can someone give me a hint on these file formats?). Or export the thing to povray (of course :p) and find a way to edit the textures for given triangle vertices.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

Dear PyMol users,
I would like to colour the beautiful
PyMol molecular surfaces according to
properties of the atoms involved.
Has anyone experimented with this?

E.g. by accessing the coordinates that define
the surface and assign a colour to each triangle
involved in the surface mesh?

regards,
               Anders
