Hello Elaine, Thanks for your reply. Now, I know what was going wrong in my script for NMR ensemble models. I was giving the "cartoon suppress false " command before the "show " command. My wording was probably wrong which might have confused you. Actually, I was interested to know whether the following "Cartoon highlight color" feature has been updated in the newer version of the ChimeraX ? https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Cartoon_highlight_color Cartoon highlight color - PyMOLWiki<https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Cartoon_highlight_color> Overview. This setting allows one to specify a contrasting color for the interior face of helices and the side faces of strands.

"cartoon suppress false" works fine for me on NMR models, but be advised that it does not turn on the display of the backbone atoms... you still have to display the ones you actually want to show. E.g. open 1g1p show :1-5@n,ca,c,o cartoon suppress false tile undo I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Hello ChimeraX team, I am just wondering whether the “Pymol Cartoon highlight color” feature of helix and strand has been brought in the newer or the daily build versions of the ChimeraX. Someone has been just recently verbally referring to me that this feature has been updated in the newer versions of ChimeraX, but I couldn’t locate the mention in the ChimeraX mailing list.
Also, I have noticed that “cartoon suppress false” command doesn’t work for the NMR ensemble PDBs I think it's more to do with specifying the “cartoon suppress false” command for the individual PDB model within ensemble PDBs. I did try to play around with selection notation for individual model with “cartoon suppress false” command but couldn’t get it right. Can you please specify the exact command notation to work around with NMR ensemble PDBs Thanks! Arun
