Hi Warren, What commands did you use? I just tested the following on PyMOL v1.5.0.4 and everything worked as advertised:
fetch 1rx1, async=0 fetch 1rx1, type=2fofc, async=0 isosurface mySurf, 1rx1_2fofc, 1.0, (organic) orient organic set transparency, 0.5 ray Can you try the above code and let me know what you get?
