Hi Rob A bit confusing :-)
But the trick in such cases is usually to duplicate your object, and show the cutaway surface on the original and the cartoon/helix/etc on the copy. The cutaway surface is often easier to create by box-selecting (with the mouse) everything but the part that should be left open, and then show surface of the selection Also confusing? :-) Cheers Esben On Wed, 2006-08-02 at 15:30, Robert Court wrote: > Hi. > > I want to make a figure showing a cutaway surface representation of a large > complex showing a channel containing a peptide helix.
