Hi Mark, You could've found this one in the archives of this list. Settings work on objects, not on selections. The solution is to make an object for the solid sticks and one for the transparent sticks, using create.

Dear All, I'm trying to write a Pymol script with which produces a mixture of both solid and transparent sticks I'm using the current 1.0 incentive release of MacPymol. 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
