Hello Kimberly,
Please try using [blue, white, red] in ramp_new:
cmd.ramp_new("ramp_obj", "ca_obj", range=[minval, maxval],
color="[blue,white,red]")
ramp_new recognizes only a limited set of pre-defined palettes (see
https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Ramp_New ) and they need to be
specified without the brackets, e.g.
cmd.ramp_new("ramp_obj", "ca_obj", range=[minval, maxval], color="rainbow")
Thanks,
Piotr
