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.

Ok thanks,
So, a script command cannot be canceled from the GUI, but it must be
from the same kind of (another) script command.
Sebastien,
I cannot
change the color for rendering modes I defined.
I do not understand what you mean by this.
Cheers,
Warren
I mean that the color, for cartoon view, is unchangeable when 'set
cartoon_color' is defined in the $HOME/.pymolrc file.
Thus, when I define 'set cartoon_color' in the
$HOME/.pymolrc file, I
cannot change the color, for the cartoons, from the GUI.
The color is kept whatever I do.
I take it that you mean that choosing the "C" box on the right-hand
menu for the object in question and then selecting a colour or
colouring scheme results in no change to your cartoon
representation.
In that case, I think that what you need to do is type:
set cartoon_color, default
Then the cartoon is not forced to be the colour that you
set (slate)
but takes on the colour of the atoms in the object.
Cheers,
Rob
Yes, that's it.
I know that I only have to comment or change this line.
