Complex B&W outline representation | What To Type | |||||
|
# first load lipid model
load lipids.pdb;
# hide the initially loaded representation
hide all;
# set background color to white
bg_color white;
# show lipid model as sticks
show sticks, lipids;
# color the lipids model by element CHNOS #2 (carbon green)
util.cbag lipids;
# select all hydrogens and remove them from the model
select hideme, hydro;
hide everything, hideme;
delete hideme;
# create phosphate spheres
create phos, elem p;
hide everything, phos;
show spheres, phos;
# load helix model
load helix.pdb;
# hide the initially loaded representation
hide everything, helix;
# make the helical struct into a cartoon form
show cartoon, helix;
# style the cartoon form
cartoon putty;
# 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
get_view;
# set ray_trace_mode to black and white outline

Grid Mode | What To Type | |||||
|
fetch 1cll 1sra 1ggz 5pnt 1rlw 1cdy;
set grid_mode
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. |
