...and similarly, should you ever want to show the phosphate trace of a
nucleic acid molecule:
def p_trace(selection="(all)"):
s = str(selection)
cmd.hide('lines',"("+s+")")
cmd.hide('spheres',"("+s+")")
cmd.hide('sticks',"("+s+")")
cmd.hide('ribbon',"("+s+")")
cmd.show('cartoon',"("+s+")")
cmd.set('cartoon_sampling',1,"("+s+")")
cmd.set('cartoon_tube_radius',0.5,"("+s+")")
cmd.extend('p_trace',p_trace)
and then:
p_trace (selection)
