Hello VMD users,

I obtained with a small script of mine density values on a grid and I
store those above a certain threshold as a pdb file where the density
value is in the beta field. Is there an easy way to represent clusters
of adjacent grid points in VMD 1.8.5 as a solid continuous surface
colored by beta? I looked at displaying it as beta-colored 'beads' or
'dotted' surface which is not optimal. I realise that I would need to
create a pot.dx volume file from my pdb but some guidance or
alternative solution would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Peter
