[PyMOL] bug in resizing viewport?

2004-06-09 Thread Matt Franklin
Hi all - I'm noticing some odd behavior with MacPymol (v0.94) involving the "viewport" command to resize the window. This command seems like it couldn't be more straightforward: specify width and height in pixels. However, look at the following output: PyMOL>viewport 100,100 PyMOL>png test.

[PyMOL] restoring default surface coloring

2004-03-01 Thread Matt Franklin
I was recently making a figure of a ligand nestled in its binding pocket, where I wanted the surface of the binding protein colored by electrostatic potential, and the surface of the ligand colored by atom type. So I read in a DelPhi map from Grasp, used ramp_new to set up the color ramp, then

[PyMOL] running pymol in command mode

Hi all - I'm trying to use pymol to render a large number of complex images in order to make a molecular movie. This already takes a long time (1-2 minutes per frame) on my Octane due to the large molecular surfaces I'm drawing, but I'm now going to need to raise the surface quality, increas
