Re: [PyMOL] Reset Default Carbon Color
Hi Wilson, interesting question and actually there is no command to control this. Howevery, it's possible, there is a setting which doesn't have a name. In the latest 1.6alpha, you can do: # reset color cycle cmd.set(239, 0) In older PyMOL versions, this should work: # reset color cycle _cmd.set(cmd._COb, 239, (2, (0,)), '', -1, 1, 0) Some related notes: - auto and current are color names which correspond to the cycle - You can also disable the color cycling: set auto_color, off Cheers, Thomas Wilson Omesiete wrote, On 04/10/13 09:03: I noticed that the default carbon color for loaded objects is set to cycle from green to pink and then repeat to differentiate models. I have a lot of models being loading and deleted within one session, and it would be very useful to be able to reset that cycle, So that the first model after a reset will have green carbons, the second will have cyan carbons, and so on. This way my coloring patterns would be consistent. The reset function does not affect the cba* cycle, and I know that I could manually call the cba* variants after every file is loaded to force this functionality, but I would rather avoid that if possible. -- Thomas Holder PyMOL Developer Schrödinger Contractor -- Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.

Re: [PyMOL] Reset Default Carbon Color
Thank you for your suggestion, Tsjerk Wassenaar, and thank you for your answer, Thomas Holder. Using _cmd.set(cmd._COb, 239, (2, (0,)), '', -1, 1, 0) ... Does exactly what I was looking for.
