Doug,

Unfortunately, I do not think is not possible: PyMOL requires a full
backbone in order to reliably generate cartoon geometries other than a
simply backbone tube.  Sorry!

Cheers,
Warren

Subject: [PyMOL] c-alpha only model & show cartoon

Hi All,

( I am unable to search the PyMOL mailing list archives for this question,
per this message:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=200807281639.m6SGcv
Ae006759%40apollo.hosting4less.com&forum_name=pymol-users
  )

How can a cartoon cylinder diagram be displayed for a c-alpha only model?
"show cartoon" and "set cartoon_cylindrical_helices, 1" only seems to show a
smooth backbone trace.

Thanks,
Doug
