Ilaria, ConnectedCloud was created to connect different objects, not atoms within a single object. Try changing(*)
cmd.select( cName, "bo. " + subSel + " within 1 of " + cName ) to cmd.select( cName, subSel + " within " + radius + " of " + cName ) which should do the trick, actually. Your call to ConnectedCloud will now look like: connectedCloud yourObj and resi XYZ, yourObj, yourRadius Lastly, I haven't tested any of this, but it should work. :-) (*) -- This also corrects a bug I just found (an correspondingly updated on the wiki; I was ignoring the radius parameter). Hope this helps, -- Jason -- Jason Vertrees, PhD PyMOLWiki -- http://www.pymolwiki.org On Thu, Jan 7, 2010 at 7:16 AM, ilaria carlone <ilariacarl...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone! > > I am using PyMOL for creating molecular surfaces (SAS), starting form a pdb > file.
