You can change that with: set surface_mode, 1 set mesh_mode, 1 That means, though, that *all* hetatm atoms will have a surface drawn. If you want to draw a surface for your oligosaccharide chains alone, then you can copy them to a separate object and set the surface_mode flag just for that object: set surface_mode, 0 create saccharide, object & <selection> (fill in your residue selection for <selection>) set surface_mode, 1, saccharide Hope that helps, Rob -- Robert L.
