Hi Ariel,

Commands like setting transparency (for surfaces, spheres, sticks, etc) act
on objects, not selections.  Does something like the following work for you?

fetch 1t3r, async=0
hide everything
show cartoon
create lig, resn 017
show sticks, lig
set stick_transparency, 0.7,lig
show sticks, byres (lig around 5) and not resn 017

For me, this shows the ligand as transparent sticks and nearby residues as
solid sticks.
