Hi Martin,

only distance measures can draw dashed lines in PyMOL, so try this:

unbond elem W, elem C
show sticks
show sphere, elem W
distance transbonds, elem W, elem C
hide label
set dash_round_ends, off
set dash_radius, 0.2
set dash_length, 0.4
set dash_gap, 0.15
ray

The dashes will display as nice cylinders when ray traced and also with
the new shader rendering in PyMOL 1.5 (set use_shaders).

Cheers,
  Thomas
