Good points. Particularly since you can say select *.ca & protein Q: What does RasMol do if you try to do a trace or a cartoon? I think another problem may be that I have a number of assumptions in the code that all 4 atoms of the backbone are present. I will file a bug report and take another look at this when I work on nucleotide chain backbones & secondary structure graphical representations.
