The color_b.py script has options called "minimum" and "maximum" just like the spectrum command. These are used to select the range of B-values to colour. So (using PDB code 1dvi as an example) if your actual B-values are between 2 and 55.98 and you set the minimum to 10 and maximum to 50, then use 8 bins (just to get nice numbers here!), by typing: color_b minimum=10, maximum=50, nbins=8 You'll see the following output from the color_b.py script: Minimum and Maximum B-values: 2.0 55.9799995422 Color select: n. ca and (b < 15 or b = 15) Color select: n. ca and b > 15 Color select: n. ca and b > 20 Color select: n. ca and b > 25 Color select: n. ca and b > 30 Color select: n. ca and b > 35 Color select: n. ca and b > 40 Color select: n. ca and b > 45 So yes, anything within the lowest range and below will be in colour 1 and anything within the highest range and above will be in colour 8.
