I looked into this a little. I think the apbs script (its apbs.py or
something -- if you can't find it search for it on google) calls a
function called cmd.ramp_new() with a bunch of arguements. Apparently
this 'ramp' is a built in c-level object. You maybe able to mimic the
code in apbs. What part of the color ramp are you trying to use in
your app ?

Hi Dan,
I saw this function in "apbs_tools.py":
ramp_name = 'e_lvl'
map_name = self.map.getvalue()
molecule_name = self.molecule.getvalue()
low = float(self.mol_surf_low.getvalue())
mid = float(self.mol_surf_middle.getvalue())
high = float(self.mol_surf_high.getvalue())
range = [low,mid,high]
print "range is",range
pymol.cmd.delete(ramp_name)
pymol.cmd.ramp_new(ramp_name,map_name,range)
pymol.cmd.set('surface_color',ramp_name,molecule_name)
pymol.cmd.show('surface',molecule_name)
pymol.cmd.sort()
My range will be always the same, and the ramp_name too.
But, how to set map_name and molecule_name ?
With coordinates, or something else ?
I found a way to add a legend box:
load Legend.dx, map #with Legend.dx as an empty file
zoom PDB_ID #to view our structure again
ramp_new legend, map, [1.0,5.0,9.0], color=['C1',[1.0,1.0,1.0],'C9']
#legend is the object name for the names panel
#map is the fake map
#[1.0,5.0,9.0] is the legend range with
# [min,medium,max] values
#color C1 is the min color, and C9 the max color
cmd.delete("map") #delete the map object
I hope this will help someone.
Hello,
I try to make a legend box as apbs plugin does with colors it uses (the
box is set at the bottom of the visualization screen).
Does someone know if a kind of tutorial exists for ?
Thanks
