Hi Robert, you again need to set the "surface_color" for the selected residues, instead of using the color command. That these two are not synced makes sense, you can for example have a half-transparent surface in one color and a stick representation below in another color.
PyMOL> set surface_color, red, (sele) By the way: you can omit the "selection" argument in your ramp_new call, this would be for automatic ranging.
