David,
For settings such as cartoon_color, surface_color, mesh_color,
the default value is -1.
set cartoon_color, -1
or
set cartoon_color, -1, object-name
will restore the color.
Thanks for pointing out that:
set cartoon_color, default
doesn't work!
Cheers,
Warren

Subject: [PyMOL] unsetting cartoon_colors
Hi all,
I have a collection of molecules and want to color a particular helix
(in cartoon mode) a specific color different from other helices.
Unfortunately, I had previously set cartoon_color from "default" to
another color, so now specifying a color for that helix (or even "color
red, ss h") has no impact. (it does change the color of the Calpha, but
not the cartoon itself).
So, the question is, how do I unset the cartoon_color variable (without
wiping out my scene)? The variable setting comes with the .pse file,
"set cartoon_color, default" gives an error about not knowing what color
default is.
Thanks,
Dave Horita
