David, By default, when HETATMs are loaded from a PDB file, the "ignore" flag is set, which means that they are excluded from surface & mesh calculations. You can clear these flags with:
flag ignore,all,clear rebuild Alternatively, you can just tell the surface and mesh algorithms to disregard the ignore flag by changing the surface mode. set mesh_mode,1 set surface_mode,1 mode 0: consider all atoms except those with ignore set mode 1: consider all atoms mode 2: consider all non-hydrogen atoms Cheers, Warren -- mailto:war...@sunesis.com Warren L.
