A few corrections there:
the colors need quotes
the */i won't work -- can't mix math and select expressions that way --
should be model=i
the color line needs @{ } surrounding the math so the processor knows to
treat it as a math expression.
Also, since the array is numbered 1 - 3 you would want, while modulus would
go 0 to 2. I would suggest:
var mycolors = ["red", "orange", "green"];
var ncolors = mycolors.size
var m = n; // 'n' is your model count here
for (var i = 1; i <= m; i = i + 1)
{
select model=i
color atoms @{mycolors[1 + (i - 1)% ncolors]};
}
Ah, but the problem is "model" refers to the number the author has assigned
-- usually just "1" for a model in a file. If there are multiple files, then
each model is still probably just "model=1" -- at least if they are PDB
files. A better solution would be if we could just say:
color atoms property modelindex
