Hi Jason, Along those lines, would it be possible to have a 'default' which can be set to a list of settings related to appearance? That might be more concise than to have everything in a separate setting.
set default,[cartoon, lines, nonbonded, cbaw] The default value as pymol starts up now would be [lines, nonbonded, cbag]. Just my 2 eurocents...
