Re: [PyMOL] differential helix transparency

Hey Satinder, transparency can only be set for objects, not for selections. Thus, you have to create different objects corresponding to your helices. Like so: create helix1, i. 23:30 # wherever your first helix is create helix2and3, i. 40:45 or i. 70:83 # the other two helices show

Hey Gary, in order to have sidechains be attached to your cartoon representation, the cartoons must not be smoothened. set cartoon_flat_sheets, off will do that. Be warned that your sheets will look like the ocean beyond the reef of Tunnels beach. To get just a sidechain, type show sticks,

Hey Thomas, if you want to use align anyway, make sure to use the quite=0 option. The quiet option (if present) is set to zero by default for parsed PyMOL commands, but is not set for Python API calls. align is nearly equal to cmd.align(quiet=0) Thus, if you want to get rmsd output, include
