RE: [PyMOL] Cartoons from ca co-ordinates only

Hi Máire, PyMOL requires the other mainchain atoms to be present in order to generate a nice cartoon representation. The only exception to this is if you're willing to work with a simple tube, in which case you can enable the cartoon_trace setting ("set cartoon_trace,on"), followed by "ca

Hi, I'm trying to create a movie showing mainchain and sidechain movements between two different states of a protein. I've generated the intermediate files, but they contain only the ca positions and not the other mainchain atom positions of the residues which are moving. I've specified the ss, but
