Title: Coot 0.5 and colours
Why is coot 0.5 relying on the element card at the right end of a pdb file for proper atom colouring? Can one turn back the 0.4.1 behaviour?

First I presume you mean element field (or column) rather than card.
Second, at least since COOT 0.3, which is when I started using COOT, it
has used the element field to colo[u]r atoms, so this is not new
behavio[u]r.

To answer your question then, there is no way in 0.5 to turn
back to the
old behaviour. It might be possible in new versions to
enable this, but
currently I am against the idea.
Running the file through pdbset solves the missing element identifier problem
-- not elegant, but quick
FWIW: If you have an 'old' pdb file, just run it through pdbset with no
keywords (other than 'END'), and the 'element column' will be added for you.
