Hi Jianghai, by default PyMOL does a distance based bonding (basically when the VDW radii of two atoms overlap, they get connected). To prevent that, you need two settings:
# before saving the correctly bonded but distorted structure set pdb_conect_all # before loading set connect_mode, 1 http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/connect_mode Cheers, Thomas Jianghai Zhu wrote, On 04/30/13 02:39: > Hi, > > In my trajectory movie, there are some minor distortions of some of > the residues, but the sticks presentation in pymol seems fine. > However, after I loaded the trajectory pdb file use discrete=1, extra > bonds would be shown in sticks in those slightly distorted residues. > Is there is way to avoid those extra bonds?
