Overview
This setting affects the radius of sticks in the sticks representation. Default scale is set to 0.25.
In newer versions of PyMOL, one may set the Stick_radius on a per-bond basis. So, you can set for example, the radius of only selected bonds if you want. This is done through the Set_bond command.
Syntax
set_bond stick_radius, ''size'', selection
where,
- size can be any float number. Using 0.25 (default value) is usually appropriate for most representations, although 0.15 migh be preferred for comparing closely related structures, e.g., conformers.
Note:
set_bond stick_radius
by itself will revert to 1.00.
If the above commands do not work
You can do something like below
To set on the entire object
set stick_radius=0.12
OR
create myObj, <selection>
Ex : create myObj, hetatm
set stick_radius,0.2,myObj
