Thanks for the quick fix! I would love to get a hotfix if possible.
The PDBe API is a nice solution. I think that detecting CA traces will fix
90% of the cases. There are still a few edge cases besides CA which don't
have a cartoon mode (e.g. 1hzs, which has a polydeoxyribonucleotide polymer

Hi Spencer,
Thank you for the bug report. We could reproduce and fix the crash, if you want
I can send you a hotfix build. I will also push the fix to the open source SVN
repository soon.
I second John's suggestions to query the "ca_p_only" property from the PDBe
API. Also, the next PyMOL vers
Dear Spencer
It is possible to work this out using the PDBe API.
for our interactive API see:

The molecules url will give you this information:

entity 1 has "ca_p_only": true,
which means cartoon will not
We have a pipeline that uses pymol to create images using the headless
command line interface. I've discovered that PyMOL 1.7.4 and 1.7.6 (at
least) crash if you try to ray-trace an empty viewport.
Example:
pymol -q -c -d 'fetch 1a1q,async=0;as cartoon;ray'
This particular example only has CA at
