The '''Show''' command, is one of the most often used commands in PyMOL.  For example, you can ''show'' certain atoms as ''[[Lines]]'' or ''[[Sticks]]'' or ''[[Cartoon]]s'' or any of the following representations: &lt;br /&gt;
*[[lines]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[spheres]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[mesh]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[ribbon]]&lt;br /&gt;

==USAGE==&lt;br /&gt;
 show&lt;br /&gt;
 show reprentation [,object]&lt;br /&gt;
 show reprentation [,(selection)]&lt;br /&gt;
 show (selection)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PYMOL API==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==EXAMPLES==&lt;br /&gt;
====Example====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# show the backbone using lines.&lt;br /&gt;
show lines,(name ca or name c or name n)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Example====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# show the ribbon representation for all objects&lt;br /&gt;
show ribbon&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Example====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# show all hetero atoms as spheres&lt;br /&gt;
show spheres, het&lt;br /&gt;

====Example====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# show only polar hydrogens&lt;br /&gt;
hide everything, ele h&lt;br /&gt;
show lines, ele h and neighbor (ele n+o)&lt;br /&gt;
# hide nonpolar hydrogens&lt;br /&gt;
hide (h. and (e. c extend 1))&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==NOTES==&lt;br /&gt;
'''selection''' can be an object name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''show''' alone will turn on lines and nonbonded for all bonds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''show cell''' will show the triclinic unit cell, provided it's described in the PDB. For cell packing, you need a script.  See [[:Category:Script_Library|The Script Library]] or [http://adelie.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/ Robert Campbell's Site]&lt;br /&gt;

====Example====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;source lang=&amp;quot;python&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# show only polar hydrogens&lt;br /&gt;
hide everything, ele h&lt;br /&gt;
show lines, ele h and neighbor (ele n+o)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/source&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==NOTES==&lt;br /&gt;
'''selection''' can be an object name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''show''' alone will turn on lines and nonbonded for all bonds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''show cell''' will show the triclinic unit cell, provided it's described in the PDB. For cell packing, you need a script.  See [[:Category:Script_Library|The Script Library]] or [http://adelie.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/ Robert Campbell's Site]&lt;br /&gt;
