Hi Carsten, How about the following:
# create new structures using alt '' and alt 'a' # and then alt '' and alt 'b' create confA, yourProtein and (not alt 'b') create confB, yourProtein and (not alt 'a') # update representation hide show cartoons confA+confB You can also repeat the name and use state flags to make a two-state protein.
