The hiddenness of the atom on one end of the bond makes that bond unviewable.

If anything, the bond would have to be "half-hidden", but bonds are drawn from atom to atom, not from atom to half-way to the other atom. Also, hidden means just that -- hidden. If you draw a bond to a hidden atom, you effectively unhide it. So I think if you want to do this what you should do is display ligand or connected(ligand) select connected(ligand); spacefill off;wireframe 0.4 or something like that, and you will get your bond. > >------------------------------------------------------------------------- >Take Surveys.
