Dear Axel,
I am trying to customize the Element representation according to my
needs but all the atoms in my file seem to be read as "X" by VMD, as
this is the only atomname in the Color Controls menu that alters the
color of my molecules. Is there any way to convert my .pdb file to
some other form that uses the VMD atom naming convention?
thanks,
Thomas
