Re: [PyMOL] CGO object code structure

[Marcelo D. P. <mar...@gm...>]

Thank you Jared,

Yes, I have been using *set cgo_transparency*, but is there a way of
embedding alpha in the CONE object definition? Since I have been using
color1='blue' and color2='red', can I just append an alpha float to the
color lists?

Best regards,
