[PyMOL] sphere diameter

2007-11-26 Thread Dr. Mark Mayer
hello, Can't find anything about this in docs or in settings: Where are sphere diameter settings controlled for individual atomic species: I'm trying to make fig with ions and the sizes don't seem to be right - Cl too small and Na too big. Thanks -- Mark Mayer Ph.D. LCMN NICHD NIH DHHS Bld

set sphere_scale should scale the spheres, but they should be proportionate and they are van der waal spheres I guess, so chlorine is smaller than soduim.. http://pt.chemicalstore.com/ 227 vs 175 pm for na and cl respecively. On Nov 26, 2007 4:15 PM, Dr. Mark Mayer wrote: > hello, > > Can't fin

Hi Mark, You can also directly change the vdw radius of sodium to its ionic radius: alter r. na\+,vdw=1.02 rebuild Cheers, Tsjerk On Nov 27, 2007 1:15 AM, Dr. Mark Mayer wrote: > hello, > > Can't find anything about this in docs or in settings: > > Where are sphere diameter settings controll

Okey, something wierd and I do not understand. I am attaching 2 pdb files and 2 png's from pymol. 3.pdb, 4.pdb, 3.png and 4.png. Now the only difference between 3 and 4 are in blank spaces. and the sphere radius change between the two pdb files. In one Na is bigger and in other Cl is .. any ideas
