[PyMOL] changing individual sphere sizes

[L. D. <du...@ia...>]

Hello, 
I need to have  spheres or dots of different sizes on a RNA ribbon. We are
trying to show that residues modify at a smaller or larger extent. So, I need to
have at different places differently sized spheres. 
Hopefully I was explicetly enough. 
Thank you, 
Laura

Hi Laura,

You can change the van der Waals radii of atoms using

alter selection, vdw=3Dnewradius

Alternatively, you can use the setting sphere_scale (set
sphere_scale,factor), which changes all radii by the given factor. Note tha=
t
you need to create different objects to use different factors for
sphere_scale.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
