Alex,
You need to create two separate objects one for your metal and another
for your water
create MG, (chain M)
create WAT, (chain W)
then you can change the properties of each object individually
set sphere_scale, 1.2, MG
set sphere_scale, 0.8, WAT
good luck,
Scott

Is there a way to set the size of non-bonded spheres to two different
sizes within the same residue? For example, I have a metal ion with a
bound water and have both in the same residue but I want the metal ion
to be bigger than the water.
I have check the list archives and googled "PyMol non-bonded sphere
size" and have had no luck.
Suggestions?
Best regards,
Alex
