Re: [PyMOL] Reducing the surface rendering load for JSmol export

[Thomas H. <tho...@sc...>]

Hi Nick,

did you try the "surface_quality" setting? The default value is 0.
That's for molecular surfaces.

PyMOL> set surface_quality, -1

The resolution of isosurfaces is determined by the resolution of the map
as far as I know. You can reduce the map resolution with the "map_halve"
command.

Cheers,
  Thomas
