[PyMOL] Transparency in residues

2003-04-23 Thread Mads Gabrielsen
Dear all,

I am new to this list, and new to PyMOL, so I appologise if this is an
old question.

Is it possible to alter the transparency of a stick/cartoon model?
I have searched the manual, but have only been able to find how to
change transparency of a surface and that is not what I want to show.

Thank you,

Mads Gabrielsen

Mads,

That feature didn't make it into the 0.86 release, but it is in
the current development version.  Look for it in the next release.

[PyMOL] surface charge?

2003-04-23 Thread camille

Hi Warren,
	I'm using PyMol to make the figures in a paper I am currently writing. 
I know that pymol can generate surfaces at the moment but not charge. 
Is there any way to colour a surface by charge in pymol using charges 
calculated in grasp? ...or can I import a grasp surface? I heard that 
this sort of thing was in the pipe-line, do you have a rough estimate 
of when it will be available?



Camille

p.s. I'm working on os x with npymol.




[PyMOL] RGB2CMYK

2003-04-23 Thread camille

Hi,
	can anyone direct me to a url with RGB colours (in the format below) 
and their CMYK equivalents? At the moment I'm messing around with the 
following kind of thing


set_color cyan2=[0.7, 1.0, 1.0]

	I need to use a cyan color in a figure but unfortunately this becomes 
very dark when the resulting ray traced image file is viewed in CMYK 
mode in illustrator. Greens, especially, seem to suffer in conversion. 
Help!


cheers,
Camille

Hi Camille,

One free utility I found very useful for this kind of things is 
ColorWrite (http://www.adaptiveview.com/cw); it's a Java application, 
so you can run it under OS X, Linux, Solaris and Windows.

Good luck,

Luca

Camille,

Gil Prive posted a set of CMYK colors before:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=2299470

My only comment was that you don't need to add a preceeding underscore
to his color names -- you can simply redefine the ones which already
exist.

set_color _green= [0.00 , 0.53 , 0.22]

can be

set_color green=[0.00,0.53,0.22] 

etc.

One thing you can do with existing images is use Photoshop's
Image-Mode-Convert To Profile option to adjust how the conversion is
performed (at least I think that is what it does).  I'm not sure
Illustrator allow you to control RGB to CMYK conversions as well as
Photoshop.

The thing to understand is that CMYK is a subset of RGB color space.
Many RGB colors simply don't exist in it.  Bright green is one of them.
RGB to CMYK is lossy, nonlinear, and dependent on the assumptions which
are made about the ink colors, blending, and about the paper stock.

RE: [PyMOL] surface charge?

2003-04-23 Thread Warren L. DeLano
Camille,

This capability exists in the development version, but isn't ready for
prime-time yet.  Look for it in the next release.  

In the meantime, you might try using raster3d to render your grasp
surface, via its ungrasp tool. 

http://www.bmsc.washington.edu/raster3d/html/r3d_filters.html#grasp

Or you can load the converted grasp surface into PyMOL as a .r3d file
and render it there.

RE: [PyMOL] Stereo pictures, light vector and shadows

2003-04-23 Thread Warren L. DeLano
Yow, good point!  I'm surprise none of us realized this before : )  You
need to change the direction of the light 6 degrees as well.

Try using this sequence to create your stereo pair:

set light=[-0.348,-0.348,-0.870]
ray
png image1.png
turn y,6
set light=[-0.437,-0.348,-0.902]
ray
png image2.png
turn y,-6

Cheers,
Warren

Subject: Re: [PyMOL] Stereo pictures, light vector and shadows




I make stereo pictures by making two pictures, with the command turn y,
6 
in between.

Now that I am looking into a crevice, I have discovered a problem with
this 
simple method.  When the view is rotated, the light vector moves with
the 
view.  This results in the two pictures having different shadows, thus 
ruining the stereo picture.  I don't want to give up on having shadows.

Has anybody solved this problem?

I am attempting to solve the problem by specifying the light setting
(set 
light = [-0.4, -0.4, -1.0]).
What are the definitions of the light parameters?

[PyMOL] how to make molecule B move around molecule A

2003-04-23 Thread yibin xu
 
 
Dear Pymolers,
 
I started to use Pymol(0.86) from last week and am still new to it. 
 
A complex at my hand contains mol A + B.  MolA is hexamer (A1-A6) and B
a monomer. Mol B modifies mol A one by one (please see the diagram
below). when making a movie, is there any easy way to move B around
A(fixed) in Pymol? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Kindest regards
 
yibin
