Roger,

        This isn’t possible right now.  The only way to do it is to
create two objects, surfacing different atoms in each object, and then
enabling transparency in just one of the two objects.  

Cheers,
Warren

Subject: [PyMOL] Restrict surface transparency to limited region

Dear PyMOL users/devs,
 
I am trying to produce a figure with a molecular surface and would like
to make this surface transparent only covering certain residues. I have
tried creating a separate surface for these residues and the rest of the
protein and setting transparency for the object covering only those
residues, but this gives a very discontinuous looking surface
representation. Is it possible to just enable transparency on a limited
region of a surface?
 
Thanks
 
Roger
