Cheom-gil,
(1) sorry, I don't think there's anyway to override the default color.
However, you could use a Python loop to automatically change the colors
of objects with certain names...for example
# save as colordist.py, then run from File menu
for a in cmd.get_names("objects"):
if a[0:5]=='
I've been making pictures of a protein using the cartoon command. At
times, I like to create a subset of residues as sticks and display them
on top of the cartoon in a different color. The problem is that color
of the stick residue changes the color of part of the cartoon under it.

Craig,
Well, the ideal solution (separate colors for cartoons vs.
sticks) doesn't currently exist. But you don't need to load the file
twice. Instead, just use the create command to make a copy, then
proceed as you have been...
load prot.pdb
create prot2,prot.pdb
hide
show sticks,prot
