The schemes can now be applied quite independently to the different types of objects. And the translucent/opaque can be used anyplace. So, for example, you can say: color atoms amino color cartoons translucent shapely And it will give you a strange rainbow combination. However, I wasn't sure what to do with bonds. The current model is that bonds can only have one color. When they are inheriting the atom colors they get drawn as two colors because their *one* color is _none_. So, I didn't really know what to do with 'color bonds cpk' or 'color bonds amino' because the bonds are split into two different colors. I am somewhat afraid to introduce two different colors for bonds because it is not clear to me what kind of impact this would have on 'set bondmode and|or' Q: What do you folks think we should do? Q: Should we allow bonds to have more than one color? Q: Does this mean that there is a third 'bondmode' ? Try to think through the implications of these things and let me know what you folks think. The color infrastructure is good enough that it could now support it, but I don't want to create a bunch of scripting issues ...
