Hi Anna, I generally run apbs seperately (due to difficulties with Alphas), but use the plugin to display with pymol. apbs will produce two output files, acc.dx and pot.dx. acc.dx is the electrostatic potential mapped to the solvent accessible surface; pot.dx is the electrostatic potential over the grid. What I generally do is to load acc.dx into pymol, and they use the plugin->apbs->display to show the surface (not sure of the exact sequence; pymol's doing a ray-tracing job for me at the moment so I can't check).
Hope this helps...I've never tried the iso_sliders plugin. I believe the author of the apbs plugin is on this list, and will probably give you clearer answers.

However, my aim is not just visualize isosurfaces of electrostatic potential at certain values, but to display/map it on molecular surface. > > Would you be so kind to share your knowledge with me on this subject? > > I'd appreciate any help or advice of yours! > > Thanks, > > Anna. > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices > Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA > Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf > _______________________________________________ > PyMOL-users mailing list > PyMOL-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pymol-users > Pete Meyer Fu Lab BMCB grad student Cornell University
