Chromadepth

The chromadepth setting turns on color by depth, using a rainbow spectrum from red (near) to blue (far). This can produce a pseudo-stereo effect when using ChromaDepth glasses.

New in Incentive PyMOL 1.7.6

New in Incentive PyMOL 1.8.6: Ray tracing support

In Open-Source PyMOL since 2.2.0
