Image Controls

The drawing method indicates how the view's selected atoms are displayed in the graphics display window, and the coloring method indicates how to color the displayed atoms. The selected view's drawing and coloring methods are changed via the corresponding chooser. Some of the methods have additional controls which will appear when that particular method (either drawing or coloring) is chosen.     The controls for the drawing method are:

• Line Width - only works on some versions of IRIX  (see section §).
• Sphere Res - detail level for rendered spheres  
• Sphere Rad - sphere radius scaling factor
• Cylinder Res - cylinder resolution (number of sides in the polygon approximation)  
• Cylinder Rad - cylinder radius scaling factor

      For the coloring method, the transparent button allows you to make the drawing representation semi-transparent (see here).   Also, when `ColorID' is chosen for the coloring method, a text entry box is shown allowing you to specify the index of a color to use for the selection, which may be a number from 0 to 15.
