Hi Ian, As this may be of broader interest, I forward it to the pymol user list too. You can clip the scene using an intersection. Let's say that you have the object you want to clip stored as a povray include file "object.inc". Then you can get the clipped object as: //### pymol_object = union

Hi Sean, Unfortunately, getting a good image through POV-Ray requires editing the POV-Ray file. You can write the scene to disk with the following commands pov=open("protein.pov","w") pov.write(cmd.get_povray()[0]) pov.write("#include \"povray.inc\"") pov.close() open("povray.inc","w").write("cm

Hi All, While ray tracing a scene with 10 x-large proteins in grid mode at 3600, 3600 (width, height) I ran out of RAM (2 GB). I tried it again by writing everything into a script and using pymol -qc which still ran out of memory. I read somewhere that POVRAY is less of a memory hog so I ins
