Mark, Your confusion arises from the new "set_bond" command, which must be used when setting bond-specific properties. Please see the official docs on "set_bond".

After drawing all my sticks I issue following commands, but nothing changes although the log output suggests the change is being set. PyMOL>set stick_transparency=0.2, /sca//A/228 and !mc Setting: stick_transparency set for 5 atoms in object "mol1". I'd also like to draw selected H-bonds with control of transparency with the rest solid, but have no idea how to do this. -- Mark Mayer Ph.D. LCMN NICHD NIH DHHS Bldg 35, Room 3B 1002 MSC 3712 35 Lincoln Drive Bethesda MD 20892 3712 Phone: 301-496-9346 (office); 301-496-9347 (lab); FAX 301-496-2396 Lab web site: http://mayerlab.nichd.nih.gov Send packages, Fedex and anything requiring a signature to: Bldg 35, Room 3B 1004 35 Lincoln Drive Bethesda MD 20892
