Hi Jason, Thanks for your response. The colouring is all correct as there is an object for each interaction type, the problem now is splitting the measures back into single objects, which Dr Lerner has mentioned is not currently possible. If this is the case I will try to refine my figures another way, the main objective was to selectively hide all the dashes except for those connected to a residue of interest purely for clarity of presentation.
