Re: [PyMOL] Transparent cartoons?
hi, i've succesfully done transparent cartoons, combining PyMOL and ADOBE PHOTOSHOP. here goes my tip: on PyMOL: 1 - ray-trace and save your picture without cartoons (with your favorite color style); 2 - now, load the cartoons (with colors you want), and paint the previous molecule (without cartoon representation) with a very distinct color (eg: red cartoons and gray balls'n sitcks); 3 -* the previous step must be done without changing the orientation of the molecule * 4 - ray-trace and save the second picture; on PHOTOSHOP: 1 - open both pictures and go to the second one (the one that has cartoons); 2 - using selection tool, select the whole cartoon part, cut and paste in the first picture (creating a new layer) adjusting its position; 3 - now you can play with the transparency of the layer; 4 - flat the layers and save your picture. hope it helps. best regards. andre ambrosio cbme/ ifsc/ usp - brazil Warren L.

[PyMOL] Transparent cartoons?
Hello everyone, Can pymol make transparent cartoons? If so, how? -Fred
