[PyMOL] Cartoon representation of 310 helices, pi helicies, and H-bonded turns?

I am working on making some cartoon-ribbon figures and I wonder if there is any consensus on how to represent secondary structures other than alpha-helices and beta-sheets. My particular protein has a couple of helices that DSSP assigns as 310-Helices. Do I just stick HELIX records in the pdb

[PyMOL] Questions about atom properties

Dear Pymolers, In the on-line help (of `iterate_state'), I found examples that one can iterate through atoms and obtain their x value. But I tried on my local installations (both Win and Linux), an error was there when I tried to access 'x' value, for example. But I can access other properties lik

Re: [PyMOL] Re: fitting residues

Jason, I think the solution is to create a copy of the object, then render one copy as cartoon, and the other as sticks. The colouring will then be independent. By the way, does anyone kwow if it is possible to invoke the command window after startup? I normally launch PyMOL with -x, but som
