hello, I have created a new resource for Jmol, Rasmol, and Chime developers called Color Gradients. you can use it to create script commands that apply a gradient color scheme to your molecule of choice. this is similar to the 'color group' command already present in Rasmol, but with some improvements:
1. choose from among four different gradient styles (rainbow, blue-white-red, black-white, or white-black). 2. create gradients that apply to a single chain, span multiple chains, or apply separately to each chain of a multi-chain structure. up to four chains are supported at this time. Color Gradients is comptible with Jmol, Rasmol, and Chime, and is available here: <http://www.molvisions.com/resources/color_gradients/> (you can also access it under the Resources menu at my home page, <http://www.molvisions.com/>.) it will run in any Web browser; not even javascript is required. ;-) to use Color Gradients, you will need to enter the chain designators, and the starting and ending residue numbers for each chain. the output is a simple html file containing your script commands, from which you can select all, copy, and paste into your spt file (or an empty text file). plans for the future include allowing a pdb file to be uploaded directly, to read chains and residues from the file itself, and other output and command formatting options. if anyone has any suggestions for improving this resource, or if it doesn't work as expected, please feel free to send me email (offlist, if you prefer). regards, tim -- Timothy Driscoll molvisions - see, grasp, learn. <http://www.molvisions.com/> usa:north carolina:wake forest ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
