Peter,

Based on what you provided, it doesn't look like you're loading a structure 
site about which to carve.  Does:

load test_file.xplor

isomesh mesh1, test_file, 1.0

work to show you the whole map?

Cheers,
Warren

Subject: [PyMOL] problem in showing the electron density map

Hello all

I am trying to upload the ED map on pymol. but, it is not visible on the 
screen. Although i checked at pymol wiki and i did as it is given on the wiki.
For example.

I took ccp4 format map and coverted it into xplor format with mapman.(beacuse i 
tried with ccp4 format map with test_file.map as well as test_file.ccp4 maps, 
but pymol showed this kind of error. I begin like this-

load test_file.xplor, test_file
isomesh map, test_file, 2.0, site, carve=1.6 

But, it doesnot show up on the screen. 
I am writing the pymol taskbar reponse.

1) loading of the map file
 
It has been loaded sucessfully, and shows this kind of information on task bar.

But, finally map doesnot show up. What could be the problem. Suggestions would 
be appereciated.

Thanks in advance
