Overview
set cartoon_side_chain_helper is an easy way, in cartoon mode, to only show the side chain of a residue.
For residues represented in cartoon (but not ribbon) form, if you show the residue also in stick or wireframe cartoon_side_chain_helper hides backbone atoms. Showing the sidechain in this method distorts the cartoon shape so it joins with the sidechain, effectively over-riding any cartoon_flat_cycles setting for that residue.
Syntax
set cartoon_side_chain_helper, off
set cartoon_side_chain_helper, 0 #off
set cartoon_side_chain_helper, on
set cartoon_side_chain_helper, 1 #on
Example
cartoon_side_chain_helper on
cartoon_side_chain_helper off
