| Complex B&W outline representation | What To Type | |||||

# set background color to white

# load helix model
load helix.pdb;
# hide the initially loaded representation
hide everything, helix;
# make the helical struct into a cartoon form

# style the cartoon form

# reposition the helix among the lipids using
# the 3-Button Editing Mouse Mode
# basically
# Shift+Left Mouse to rotate the helix
# Shift+Middle Mouse to move the helix
# also, you may want to make liberal use of the
# get_view and set_view commands.
#
# When you have the scene set like you want,
# continue with...
# move the model to find the view you want,
# and use get_view to get the coordinate description

Hint: You may wish to execute the 'reset' command on the command line after running the above commands to get full molecules in view of window and centered in a more useable manner. |
