Hi Nick, This is something Robert Campbell alluded to a few days ago. To get what you want, the "python block" and "mdo" are you friends:
# create an ala fragment and setup the view frag ala as sticks orient # 60-frame movie mset 1x60 # start a Python block that fades out the fragment python for x in range(60): cmd.mdo(x, "set_bond stick_transparency, %f, ala" % (x/60.)) python end # play the movie mplay See: * -- http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Mdo * -- http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Python Cheers, -- Jason On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 12:54 PM, Nicolas Bock <nicolasb...@gmail.com> wrote: > When I do the following > > hide all > show sticks, all > scene 001, store > > set_bond stick_transparency, 0.5, all > scene 002, store > > scene 001 > > the stick_transparency setting is not restored.
