Molecule colors

JMV allows you to change the color gradient of the molecule. When selecting a color gradient, JMV uses 3 colors, a beginning, middle, and end color. The gradient fades from the beginning to the middle, and then from the middle to the end color to create a smooth color gradient. The number of ``in-between'' colors for each gradient is determined by the number of items being colored. For example, if the molecule is colored by index, then each atom gets its own color. If the molecule is colored by residue, each residue type will get its own color. The representations ``Name'' and ``Structure'' have their own color schemes, and are not affected by the color gradients.

To change the color gradient, select ``Color Gradient'' from the ``View'' menu and select one of the choices. The current color gradients are:

Style	Description
RGB	Red$\rightarrow$Green$\rightarrow$Blue
BGR	Blue$\rightarrow$Green$\rightarrow$Red
RWB	Red$\rightarrow$White$\rightarrow$Blue
BWR	Blue$\rightarrow$White$\rightarrow$Red
BW	Black$\rightarrow$White
WB	White$\rightarrow$Black
