Henry, I've devised a (very) dirty solution: duplicate residue 1 as nr. 9 The trace or cartoon is very sharp at the connection, so things get better if we shift the residue numbering, such as making 1 -> 6 2 -> 7 3 -> 8 4 -> 1 5 -> 2 6 -> 3 7 -> 4 8 -> 5 9 is a copy of the new residue 1 (former 6); this is in the straightest part of the chain, so the conection looks better.
You must reorder the data so that the residues are in order 1..9 in the file. If you still don't like the bent joining, duplicate another residue (new 10 = new 2); you will then see two close stretches of trace: hide the added 9,10 residues using "hide" so that duplicate atoms, bonds and trace are not seen, but the trace trajectory will still be smooth. Dirty, as I said, but good-looking enough ;-) And the hidden state of added residues is something not easy to be changed by users. I will attach a sample in a separate message off-list ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Jmol-users mailing list Jmol-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-users
