Molecular sculpting works like a real-time energy minimizer, except that it isn't minimizing the energy. Instead, its just trying to return local atomic geometries (bonds, angles, chirality, planarity) to the configuration the molecules possess when they were first loaded into PyMOL. To actu

My guess is that you may still be showing sticks in the original object, instead of just cartoons. If you have the same overlapping representation in two objects, it isn't predictable which will show up in the ray-tracer, and you can get exactly this behavior, where you see one color in OpenGL

Hi Michel, PyMOL doesn't surface HETATM's by default. A HEME is labeled a hetero-group in the PDB and is ignored by the surfacing routine (the ignore flag is set for those atoms). To fix that, you need to clear the ignore flag for the HEM atoms: flag ignore, hem/, clear rebuild Alternativ
