Re: [PyMOL] Dashed/Dotted Lines for Ribbon Representation

I see. It would be nice to have the cartoon_flat_sheets effect on the loop and tube variants, too. I like the looks of it. Maybe in a future version :-) Thanks, Yang On Thu, Apr 19, 2018 at 4:30 PM, Thomas Holder < thomas.hol...@schrodinger.com> wrote: > Hi Yang, > > That's an interesting

Re: [PyMOL] Dashed/Dotted Lines for Ribbon Representation

Hi Yang, That's an interesting observation, I wasn't aware that cartoon dash and loop may be traced differently. Apparently the "cartoon_flat_sheets" setting only applies to dash, not loop. Turning it off will make them follow the same path: set cartoon_flat_sheets, 0 Cheers, Thomas > On

Re: [PyMOL] Dashed/Dotted Lines for Ribbon Representation

Also, 'cartoon dash' and 'cartoon loop' render beta-strands differently, so I can't combine the two and get a consistent look and feel. The use case is to show regions of the structure as dashed line to indicate 'not covered in study'. I can't use different colors for this purpose because color

Re: [PyMOL] Dashed/Dotted Lines for Ribbon Representation

Thanks for the tip, Thomas. 'cartoon dash' works with cartoon representation, but doesn't seem to affect the ribbon representation. For some use cases I like the 'cornered' ribbon representation better than the smooth cartoon representation, but cartoon is still a good alternative if it is not

Re: [PyMOL] Dashed/Dotted Lines for Ribbon Representation

Hi Yang, Yes, since PyMOL 1.8.2 there is "cartoon dash". e.g.: fetch 1ubq, async=0 as cartoon cartoon dash See also: https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Cartoon#USAGE Cheers, Thomas > On Apr 19, 2018, at 12:54 PM, Yang Su wrote: > > Hi, > > Is there an option to
