set stick_color, grey

the image looks a little more like

set stick_color, grey90

but I can't quite tell.

Hi all,

There is a beautiful ball-and-stick image on pymol-wiki that I am
trying to replicate (http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Ball_and_Stick).

The wiki image has grey bonds and light blue balls for carbon, dark
blue for nitrogen, and red balls for oxygen.  My problem is that all
my bonds and balls are the same color, and I can't figure out how to
make the bonds a grey color, distinct from the atom ball colors.
And I'm trying to script this.




Hi Marilyn -

You probably can't do it all with one object.  Create another object which
is a duplicate of the one you're working with, then show spheres on object
#1 and sticks on object #2.  You can then color the balls and the sticks
separately, since each object gets its own set of colors.

For example:

PyMOL>create obj1, 1FLT and chain w
Selector: found 797 atoms.
Executive: object "obj1" created.
PyMOL>create obj2, 1FLT and chain w
Selector: found 797 atoms.
Executive: object "obj2" created.
PyMOL>color gray, obj2
Executive: Colored 797 atoms and 1 object.
PyMOL>color green, obj1
Executive: Colored 797 atoms and 1 object.
PyMOL>show spheres, obj1
PyMOL>show sticks, obj2
PyMOL>set stick_radius, 0.1
Setting: stick_radius set to 0.10000.
PyMOL>set sphere_scale, 0.25
Setting: sphere_scale set to 0.25000.


This gives a ball-and-stick of one chain where the balls are all green and
the sticks are all gray.  Modify as needed....
