Hi Sean, Unfortunately colors are hardcoded in the CGO lists and can not be changed dynamically. The solution is to wrap the CGO object in a class with a draw/redraw method. But that requires a bit of programming. I have something that is aimed at handling triangulated shapes, which I can send you if you're interested.
But I've also been longing to see more flexible non-molecular shapes in Pymol for quite a while. Actually, I'm dreaming of having Blender or so incorporated :p Cheers, Tsjerk On Fri, Sep 10, 2010 at 8:27 PM, Sean Law <magic...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi PyMOLers, > > I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but when I draw CGO shapes in PyMOL and > then later decide to give the shape a different color, I can't seem to > change the color of the CGO object by simply clicking on "C" from the > internal GUI and selecting the desired color.
