Hi Tsjerk, you could map keys, so hiding surface of a atom/residue/... breaks down to a click + key press operation.
cmd.set_key('F1', cmd.show, ('surface', 'sele')) cmd.set_key('F2', cmd.hide, ('surface', 'sele')) If you really want to map the mouse click operation you need to write a wizard, which is more work.
