Re: [PyMOL] PyMOL on the Mac
I second Tsjerk on this, maybe in the .pymolrc? And auto_show_sticks would be very useful to me!

That might be more concise than to have everything in a separate setting. set default,[cartoon, lines, nonbonded, cbaw] The default value as pymol starts up now would be [lines, nonbonded, cbag]. Just my 2 eurocents... Cheers, Tsjerk On Tue, Mar 16, 2010 at 12:53 AM, Jason Vertrees jason.vertr...@schrodinger.com wrote: David, You may remember writing: A Pymol Quicklook plugin. My primary purpose would be for pses, but you might as well pick up pdbs and other formats supported by pymol along the way. For pdb files, I wouldn't want the default pymol view of lines colored by atom with green carbons being what I quicklook to, so either reading .pymolrc to get a default view or some variant ( .pymolqlrc ?) would be nice to allow users to customize their views. Also, maybe default to a cartoon representation colored by chains with het atoms as sticks and metals as spheres, but that's probably just forcing the view I want on others when I could just stick that in my personal .pymolqlrc type file. Well, reading through the source today, I found a couple settings that few know about--and I might add more similar settings: auto_show_lines == show a newly loaded object with lines representation? auto_show_spheres == show a newly loaded object with spheres representation? auto_show_nonbonded == show newly loaded non-bonded? If these are considered useful, I can add others like: auto_show_cartoon(s) # example set auto_show_spheres fetch 1cll This offers some more flexibility for the user to choose lines or other default representation.

Re: [PyMOL] color by element
What I personally do is: cmd.color(grey50,all) util.cnc(all) So that my carbons have the color I wish (grey50), and other atoms are colored by element.

I've been told by people that these are supposed to be internal commands and I shouldn't use them, but I do and they've been there as long as I've used pymol. Currently, these are: util.cbab for slate util.cbag for green util.cbam for magenta util.cbap for purple util.cbaw for white util.cbac for cyan util.cbak for pink util.cbao for orange util.cbas for salmon util.cbay for yellow You can see how these are implemented in http://pymol.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pymol/trunk/pymol/modules/pymol/util.py?view=markup if you want to make your own custom versions. -David Hall On Tue, Feb 9, 2010 at 5:46 PM, Ariel Talavera talav...@cim.sld.cu wrote: Hi Pymolers, How can I use the color by element (HNOS) function present in the GUI, in a script?

Re: [PyMOL] unexpected EOF while parsing
Jouko, Try to use the cmd.load(pdb) command instead of load pdb Apparently, the load statement takes a file name as argument, not a variable, whereas the api call (cmd.load) can handle variables.

Re: [PyMOL] Electrostatic surface visualization
Marco, Maybe you could replace (alter) the B-factor of your protein with the electrostatic values, and color it accordingly; some googling should give you more hints about how you could solve this issue, like http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/data2bfactor.py and http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/color_b.py from Robert Campbell. A lot of useful scripts are posted on his website: http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/ Cheers, Greg -Original Message- From: se...@uniroma2.it [mailto:se...@uniroma2.it] Sent: Saturday, March 03, 2007 11:40 AM To: pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [PyMOL] Electrostatic surface visualization Dear all, I'm new to this list and to the software. I used PyMOL and APBS to calculate an electrostatic surface for a small protein (I'm using the WindowsXP version) and everything seems fine. Now I would like to visualize this surface AND the secondary structure of the protein, in order to understand the positive and negative regions. How I can do? Some software show the surface in trasparency but it seems this is not possible in PyMOL. A related question: it is possible to color the secondary structure according to the electrostatic surface properties? I have an NMR titration of this protein with its partner: I would like to relate the shifts of the NH backbone with the electrostatic surface. I looked at the archive but I haven't found an answer.
