The trick to updating the menu is to use the frame command. If you only have one frame, just add this:
frame 0 and the menu will be updated to enable isosurface mapping of MEP Bob frame Reinhold Stoermann wrote: >Hello to all, > >I just joined this list, because I currently try to convert a website >from using the old MDL Chime to jmol. >(jmol 11.2.14). > >The molecules are represented by a bunch of PDB files, where the columns >61-66 usually holding the temperature factor have been filled instead >with partial charges of the atoms which where computed with MOPAC. > >This arrangement made it possible in Chime to generate an isosurface >with a coloring scheme according to the partial charges. > >If I laod the same pdb files in jmol, the menu option > >Surfaces -> Molecular Electrostatic Potential > >is not accessible, and a script using the command > >color atoms temperature > >gives an image of red an blue atom colorings bearing no relation to the >"temperature factors" (which are actually partial charges).
