Dear list-readers,
I wish to display only a selected set of residues created as a separate selection where the side chains are sticking out from the "new ribbons" object without main chain CO and NH disturbing the view. So I did the following selections:

"residue 47 45 44 40 and not backbone"

"residue 47 45 44 40 and alpha"

This results in the view I wish to have when visualising the selection with licorice except that the Ca-Cb bond is missing. Any hints on how I can get the side chain visualised from Ca and "outwards" are most welcome and appreciated?

Regards

Peter
