Hello fellow Pymol users!
it sounds like I have the same objective as N. Sanishvili (25th Feb
2003) anyone told Nukri how you can ray-trace a stereo figure yet? I
couldn't find a reply to the original question on stereo figs on the
BB. I am also trying to label specific residues in my stereo
Thanks to Ulrich for the quick reply to my last question,
another question for the BB, how do I show a ca trace? I took my pdb
(all atoms) and did grep ca etc.. so I have a pdb containing
consecutively numbered ca atoms only. How do I tell pymol to draw
connections between them (n+1 and n-1)?
Thanks for the helpful emails everyone.
What I did to get the figure I wanted (CA trace with every 10th ca
highlighted) was as follows...
use your normal PDB file and do...
show ribbon
set ribbon_sampling, 0
..as suggested by Robert L. Campbell
...and then I just showed the sphere for speci
Camille,
Stereo ray-traced images aren't available yet, but you can prepare
them manually by tracing two images 5-6 degrees rotated about Y and then
combining them. Labels will have to be added manually for now.
For a CA trace:
set ribbon_trace,1
show ribbon
If you don't want a smooth trace
Hello Camille,
I will tell you how I make absolutely beautiful stereo figures in PyMOL
(with Adobe illustrator too) with nicely depth cued labels. It takes a
little more than clicking a single button, but it works well.
create two PyMOL scripts of your view that are identical with all the
be
If people want to see this example I can email it to you. Apparently
the sourceforge list server will not accept messages longer than 40kb.
Ciao,
Scott
PyMOLers,
Here is a visual example of how to label a stereo figure so that the
labels appear at the proper depth when viewed in stereo.
