Outline
There is currently (as of PyMOL v.1.7) no way to outline a selection directly within PyMOL. However, it can be accomplished indirectly with a composite image.
Relevant Settings
Example
The following script was used to generate the first two images from PyMOL.
bg_color white
fetch 3cyt, async=0
as surface
color marine
select outline, br. chain I and resi 85 around 2
set_view (\
0.061975956, -0.950684488, 0.303902954,\
0.703773856, 0.257531703, 0.662103057,\
-0.707715809, 0.172843516, 0.685028315,\
0.000000000, 0.000000000, -152.244812012,\
25.274658203, 8.288025856, 9.110867500,\
51.143974304, 253.345642090, -20.000000000 )
png base.png, ray=1
hide everything
as surface, outline
set ray_trace_mode, 2
set ray_trace_color, yellow
set ray_opaque_background, 0
png overlay.png, ray=1
In an image editing program, position overlay.png in a layer exactly overlapping base.png. The extra outline lines can also (optionally) be cleaned up by carefully erasing them using the graphics program's eraser tool.
Automation
If you need to have a fully automated solution, you can use ImageMagick or GraphicMagick to do this. If you use ImageMagick in a Unix box, you can type this command on the terminal:
composite -gravity center overlay.png base.png composite.png
See this page on ImageMagick for more information. If you need to use it with GraphicMagick or in Windows or Mac, search for the relevant guidances.
If you need to erase the lines inside the border, you can use the following command to do it. The `color` variable is the desired final output color of the border; change the `width` variable to change the border's thickness.
infile="overlay.png"
outfile="overlay_cleaned.png"
width=3
w2=`convert $infile -format "%[fx:w-2]" info:`
h2=`convert $infile -format "%[fx:h-2]" info:`
convert $infile -background white -flatten -fill black +opaque white -bordercolor none -border 2 \
-fill none -draw "matte 2,2 floodfill matte $w2,2 floodfill matte $w2,$h2 floodfill matte 2,$h2 floodfill" \
-fill white +opaque none -fill black -opaque none \
-alpha off -morphology edge octagon:$width \
-channel rgba -fill none +opaque white -fill $color -opaque white -shave 2x2 $outfile
See this thread in ImageMagick forum for more detail.
