Hi everyone- I have two interacting monomers, and have selected the contacting resides between them and drawn a solid surface around these selected residues on one monomer. This worked fine and I had no problem.
I would now like to draw a mesh surface around the remaining residues in the monomer, that is, everything but the contacting residues. No matter what selection scheme I try to use, the mesh is always drawn around the entire molecule. For instance: select contacts=(byres monA and (monB around 4)) show surface, contacts show mesh, (monA and (!contacts)) ****mesh is still drawn around whole molecule However, the following command does work to color just the mesh surface that is not in contact with the other monomer: color grey70, (monA and (!contacts)) which leads me to believe that my syntax is correct for the selection. What am I missing? Is there a way to just show the mesh over a certain portion of a molecule? Many thanks in advance- Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Stephen M.
