OJ,

I think Photoshop (or Gimp?) is probably the tool for this -- PyMOL's
ray_trace_mode cannot distinguish between the underlying representations,
but you could probably accomplish this through recoloring select portion of
a single rendering or through composition of multiple renderings.

Cheers,
Warren

Hey again everyone,

   I've working with a model in pymol which needs to end up as a greyscale
image (for a journal).   The model is fairly complicated, and contains
several molecules - some represented as spheres, some as sticks, etc.   I
was working with:
set ray_trace_mode, 2;
To produce a black and white image after raytracing.   I realize that this
option is supposed to produce a black outline only...   Now I'd like all the
parts of the image that are in stick representation to be outlined in gray
(40% black), with the rest being black outline and white.   Is there a nice
way to get the 'set ray_trace_mode, 2' effect with all stick representations
being gray outline?
Thanks.
