> But does this problem look like a bug ? No, it works as intended. The issue here is that the GUI just does not (yet) provide the capability of coloring representations, just atoms. So if you color representations directly using a command, then you'll need to use a command uncolor them.
At present, only a small fraction of PyMOL's capabities are directly exposed in the user interface. The rest must be accessed through commands, scripts, and/or Python programs. I'm not saying that is good...it is just how things are right now. Cheers, Warren -- Warren L. DeLano, Ph.D. Principal Scientist . DeLano Scientific LLC . 400 Oyster Point Blvd., Suite 213 .
