Q: If I do it for 'temperature', are we going to want it for other things

I want it for all.



Of course you want it for all ... everybody wants it all :-)



I want carbon green



select carbon; color atoms green



I want helix red and sheet blue



select helix; color atoms red; select sheet; color atoms blue



and I don't want to say it every time, I want to manipulate the color
schemes, *too*.



That represents quite a bit of tedious work for me and I am not going to get much personal satisfaction out of it. And since I do not receive any financial compensation for this work, the 'personal satisfaction quotient' is quite important :-)

Plus, it just isn't clear to me that changing colors is a good thing. As
someone from outside the chemistry community, it seems to me that the
publishers and standards boards have been somewhat delinquent in this
area. I think that there should be a standard set of recommended colors
for published manuscripts and for software packages.


who mad that standard?
e.g. I like MolMol (sheet blue, helix red (outside) yellow (inside))
or in WebMol (coloring carbon green, sheet blue) or AstexViewer (carbon green)


Since I want Jmol used on public web sites, where students and casual
users can come and go from time to time, I generally think that the colors
should be consistent.

Right now I am struggling to wrap this thing up and ship the official v10
release. I am supposed to be in 'bug-fix mode'. The only reason I
implemented the 'temperature' colors is because it was a very isolated
change and the command exists in RasMol/Chime.


I only repeated my demand on simple color scheme manipulation now, because I thought it was the opportunity for a general implementation of scheme manipulations
set temperatureColor [-1=>red,0=>white,1=>blue,else=>yellow]
set structureColor [helix=>red,sheet=>blue,turn=>yellow,else=>gray]
set cpkColor [H=>white,C=>green,O=>red]

Look, at some point I will probably open up the color palettes and give
you the coloring options that you want. But it probably is not going to
happen until 2005.
