Re: [PyMOL] Cartoon transparency

[Robert H. <ha...@st...>]

That would not work if you were trying to show selected individual ribbon
segments translucent, I think. Right?

>From what I can tell, here is the list of settings that you can assign a
selection. Notably missing is cartoon_transparency and ribbon_transparency.
Perhaps because a cartoon object can't be broken down into individual
segments that way in PyMOL.  Are there more?

cartoon_color
dot_color
ellipsoid_color
ellipsoid_scale
ellipsoid_transparency
label_color
label_position
ladder_color
ladder_mode
ladder_radius
mesh_color
nonbonded_transparency
ribbon_color
ring_color
ring_mode
ring_radius
ring_width
sphere_color
sphere_scale
sphere_transparency
surface_color
transparency
