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.

Cheers,

-- Jason
