Dear Jason,
Thank you for your reply. I tried sphere_mode command on two machines.
On Fedora 13, PyMol 1.3
set sphere_mode, 5

set sphere_mode, 4, 3, or 2 can show sphere, but it looks terrible.
One Fedora 8, PyMol 1.3
set sphere_mode, 5
also disabled sphere display.

Sincerely,
Xiao-Ping

This is pixel-perfect rendering of spheres in PyMOL using openGL
shaders. Otherwise, these quality settings in PyMOL are typically
limited to how much memory your machine has; also, these settings are

can use "set sphere_quality, 10" to generate a ball_stick picture. When I
tried to use the same command, PyMol crashed. The default sphere_qu
