[PyMOL] spectral coloring

2007-06-26 Thread Martin Höfling
Hi there,

i am trying to map b factors on a surface representation. 

I am using spectrum b,blue_white_red,mymol and the colors are fine. Is there a 
way to fine tune the color spectrum, such as with the Midpoint and Offset 
sliders in vmd?

[PyMOL] Sticks and distances with individual transparencies

2007-06-26 Thread Dr. Mark Mayer

Dear All,

I'm trying to write a Pymol script with which produces a mixture of 
both solid and transparent sticks
I'm using the current 1.0 incentive release of MacPymol. After 
drawing all my sticks I issue following commands, but nothing changes 
although the log output suggests the change is being set.


PyMOLset stick_transparency=0.2, /sca//A/228  and !mc
Setting: stick_transparency set for 5 atoms in object mol1.

I'd also like to draw selected H-bonds with control of transparency
with the rest solid, but have no idea how to do this.

[PyMOL] coloring based on sequence identity

2007-06-26 Thread Eva Vanamee

Hi,

I'd like to color a molecule based on its sequence similarity to another 
molecule.

Can this be done in Pymol?
Thanks in advance.

- Eva

If you can quantify similarity in a number you can write it into the 
b-factors of the atoms and then color it by them.

Re: [PyMOL] rotate about an abitrary axis

2007-06-26 Thread DeLano Scientific
Minh,
 
This type of use is now covered under the rotate command in the official
documentation for PyMOL 1.0 ( http://delsci.info/dsc ) as well as in the
current open-source code.

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to make a selection rotate about an arbitrary axis (which we
can actively define ourself (not x,y, z) ?)
Thanks,

Mark,
 
Your confusion arises from the new set_bond command, which must be used
when setting bond-specific properties.  Please see the official docs on
set_bond.
 
Cheers,
Warren

[PyMOL] PyMOL 1.0 and Official Docs

2007-06-26 Thread DeLano Scientific
Greetings!

As some of you have noticed, PyMOL 1.0 is out (at last!).  Though it lacks
many of the features and enhancements I had hoped to deliver in the big
1.0, we were long overdue for a major release and so the line was drawn.
 
For those of you new to PyMOL within the past year or so, our software
releases are a relatively low-key event:  The last thing we want is for
everyone to race out and download the latest version, suddenly to discover
some horrendous bug right in the middle of orals or a critical corporate
presentation.  No, no, not that! 

Instead, we ask people to gradually ease into new versions at a safe time 
place, while reporting any problems that come up so that we can quickly fix
the source and builds before too many other folks encounter them.  In terms
of features, PyMOL 1.0 is not a huge leap beyond the latest 1.0 beta builds,
but there were some last minute tweaks, so please do use caution.

So far, so good: the 1.0r0 builds appear stable, and current sponsors can
download builds from http://delsci.com/ip.  Non-sponsors are welcome to
pull  compile the open-source code from the Subversion repository hosted at
SourceForge http://pymol.sf.net.  Free educational-use-only builds of
PyMOL 1.0 will be released in early August, before the start of the fall
semester.

The other big announcement is the opening of our official documentation
site, which has also been in the works for over a year.  As opposed to the
PyMOL Community Wiki, this read-only resource at http://delsci.info/dsc is
something you need a paid subscription to access, and it also involves a
somewhat tedious email-based registration  login process.  I apologize in
advance for that inconvenience.  

However, if your company or institution maintains an entity-wide PyMOL
subscription, then we can simply reverse-DNS through your whole domain so
that you and all your colleagues can access documentation without logging
in, much the same way transparent entity-wide access is granted for
scientific journals. 

By the way, if you are thinking of sponsoring the effort or of renewing an
existing subscription, please do look into whether we might all save time 
effort by going entity-wide.  Processing of individual and/or laboratory
subscriptions takes precious time  resources away from development and
documentation relative to broader subscriptions.  Plus, in addition to
saving paperwork, entity-wide subscriptions can potentially benefit a much
larger base of users at a much lower per-user cost.

So a hearty thank you to everyone who has made PyMOL possible over the
past 7 years, whether at the individual, laboratory, departmental,
corporate, or institutional level.  Although I do not have permission to
name most PyMOL sponsors, they include many top universities, research
institutes, pharmaceutical companies, and biotech giants, as well as a wide
assortment of startup companies, laboratories, and individuals.  Thanks also
to the contributors of various open-source components and capabilities!
Together we are all working together to ensure that PyMOL continues to
thrive under terms that remain compatible with the open-source code.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
Warren L. DeLano, Ph.D.

2007-06-26 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar

Hi Mark,

You could've found this one in the archives of this list. Settings
work on objects, not on selections. The solution is to make an object
for the solid sticks and one for the transparent sticks, using create.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
