Hi Yarrow,
I'm sure other visualizing tools can do this, but I just wanted to share that our free Discovery Studio Visualizer<http://accelrys.com/products/discovery-studio/visualization-download.php> can do this quite easily. Contact me off the list and we can set up a time when I can show you how to do this. I could also send you some instructions as well.

Thanks Nat, I was planning on plotting B-factors vs. residue anyway, so maybe this will save me time. I will take a look. -Yarrow > Not a CCP4 solution, but the structure comparison program in the > Phenix GUI will plot B-factors for different structures of the same > protein.
