Hi Nick,

This is something Robert Campbell alluded to a few days ago.  To get
what you want, the "python block" and "mdo" are you friends:

# create an ala fragment and setup the view

frag ala
as sticks
orient

# 60-frame movie

mset 1x60

# start a Python block that fades out the fragment

python
for x in range(60):
  cmd.mdo(x, "set_bond stick_transparency, %f, ala" % (x/60.))
python end

# play the movie

mplay

See:

Cheers,

-- Jason
