Dear Petro, Text labels in PyMOL (http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Label) are displayed per atom, so the usual way is to make a pseudoatom ( http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Pseudoatom) for each helix label you want to make.
Using selections this can be pretty straight forward. Let's say you have your coloured helices as selections you could do something like: zoom helix1 pseudoatom labelhelix1 label labelhelix1, "Helix 1" The position of the label can be changes using the edit mode (see e.g. http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/MovieSchool_3#Mouse_Modes) Hope this helps Best regards, Folmer Fredslund 2011/10/30 Piter_ <x.pi...@gmail.com> > Hi all. > I have a protein structure in cartoon representation.
