Jaim, I also suggest using write isosurface "xxxx.jvxl"
from the Jmol application or signed applet. This only works if you have a predefined notion of the surface you want to display; see notes at http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/isosurface.htm and http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/misc/JVXL-format.pdf Basically, you just create the surface and write it to disk, then load it with the isosurface command: isosurface "xxxx.jvxl" Bob On Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 7:52 AM, Karl Oberholser <[email protected]> wrote: > In settings other than Proteopedia I reduce the time required to display a > surface by generating a data file of the surface, and then just display the > surface rather than calculate the surface each time the script is run.
