Remember this setting will only change the appearance of alpha helices.  If you 
are trying to change the appearance of sheets and loops you need to use their 
settings.

Cheers,

Subject: Re: [PyMOL] Cartoon_oval_length

1) Go to Settings in the menus and choose Edit all.

In the new window that appears type "oval" in the search box.

Double click the default value for cartoon_oval_length, enter your chosen 
preference, and hit the enter key on your keyboard.

You should see your change.

2) If this doesn't work, you see no change, then the selection for your chosen 
object has been directly modified by script.

You can check this by opening a new PyMOL session and open any pdb file. Apply 
the default changes to cartoon oval length as described above in #1, if it 
works, then #2 needs to be changed.

To change #2, choose the exact same selection that you (or someone else) 
modified in the past and set the cartoon oval length for just that selection... 
set cartoon_oval_length, 0.6, "your selection or pdb name".
