Hi Greg,
You might need to display your sidechains as sticks rather than lines
in order for them to be visible when you write out your image file. Or
perhaps, if you are not already doing it, you should raytrace your
scene by hitting the "ray" button before you write out your image file.

Hello all,
I'm having a problem saving the pymol output as an image. I'm working
with asingle alpha helix (~25 residues) with the residues displayed as
lines, the backbone as a ribbon, and one or more of the residues as
spheres. When i go to save the image, the lines are no longer present
in the image, but still there in the pymol window. I should also note
it's not a consistent problem. This happens about 60% of the time i
try to save these images. Sometimes if i re-save the picture, it
works.
ANy ideas?
Thanks
