Hi Brian,
Try this, the info is from the mailing list archive (http://
sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=60)it just takes a bit
of finding....
load x.pdb
load whatever.dx, e_pot
ramp_new e_lvl, e_pot, [-15, 0, 15], [ [1,0,0], [1,1,1] , [0,0,1] ] #
this sets the scale and colours for the e_potential scale.
show surface, x.pdb
set surface_color, e_lvl, x.pdb
# load whatever.dx, e_pot - this loads the .dx map and calls it e_pot
(this might not load via command line. If not, use the open command
from the file menu then rename as desired)
# ramp_new e_lvl sets the scale and colors
# [-15, 0, 15] sets the potential scale
# [1,0,0] is red, [1,1,1] is white, [0,0,1] is blue so -15 is red, 0
is white and +15 is blue
hope it helps

Dear Users,
I was wondering does anyone know how to get nice APBS generated
electrostatic surfaces in MacPyMOL. I know the APBS plugin can't/
won't work in MacPyMOL so I guess it's a question of what do I do
with the output from APBS (I assume it's the dx file) to get a
surface in MacPyMOL.
Till now I've been generating the surfaces in PyMOLX11Hybrid with
the plugin and saving a pse file and then reading it into MacPyMOL,
which is not the end of the world I guess, but it's just a bit of a
pain......
Cheers,
