Dear Tsjerk and other pymolites To draw my cylinders I just modified Warren's example from the CGO demos in the examples/devel directory. I give this below. Maybe there is another way to do this? I would like cylindrical cylinders with sharp cut ends rather than rounded ends. I guess this is down to OPENGL not to pymol. I have another program that looks at the RNA atomic coordinate file and writes in the coordinates of the double-helical regions of the RNA. (currently this is based on a user going through the secondary structure by hand - I discussed with Luca Jovine a little about whether it could be done automatically but he has not time just now to spend on this). So below is an example of Warren's code after I hack in my coordinates, You get it into pymol by using the 'run' command. Thanks for any help with this. Best wishes and regards Martyn ------------------------------------------------------------------- # this is a trivial example of creating a cgo object consisting of a # a single state # first we create a list of floats containing a GL rendering stream # obj is an empty list to begin with... obj = [] obj.extend( [ CYLINDER, 13.839,-33.646,20.164,24.5685,-15.6645,16.6015, #hacked in from coords 10.0, # Radius 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, # RGB Color 1 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, # RGB Color 2 ] ) # then we load it into PyMOL cmd.load_cgo(obj,'cgo013') # move the read clipping plane back a bit to that that is it brighter cmd.clip('far',-5) On Tue, 10 May 2005, T.A.Wassenaar wrote: > Date: Tue, 10 May 2005 21:37:33 +0200 > From: T.A.Wassenaar <T.A...@ru...> > To: Martyn Symmons <ma...@cr...> > Subject: Re: [PyMOL] cgo cylinders with flat ends? > > > Hi Martyn, > > It sounds like you used the SAUSAGE keyword rather than > the CYLINDER keyword, the latter of which is a true > cylinder.
