[PyMOL] How to label residue name on top of sphere representation

2021-04-01 Thread sunyeping via PyMOL-users
Dear all,

I wish to label residue name on top of sphere representation, but I find it is 
difficult.
I tried the following command

select sele, c. A & resi 47 & name CB
show sphere, c. A & resi 47
lable sele, "Y47"

I and the "Y47" label is hidden inside the sphere and cannot be seen. 
Even if I set the sphere to be 80 % transparency, the label cannot be seen yet.
So what the the correct way to make such a labelling?

Best regards,
Yeping Sun___

[PyMOL] Displaying internal cavities as a surface or a mesh

2021-04-01 Thread Irwin Selvam
Hi,

Apologies if this is a rudimentary question. I'd like to display an internal 
binding pocket around a compound as a surface (or mesh). I don't need to detect 
the presence of a cavity but simply show its approximate boundaries.

  1.  Is there a way to display the cavity as a surface about specific residues 
or objects?
  2.  Is there a way to display the cavity as a mesh instead of a surface?
  3.  Can the transparency of a mesh be set to a user defined value?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Irwin
