<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Sets how PyMOL draws the surface. The default, [[surface_mode]]=0 does not include the heteroatoms within the surface; setting it to 1, does include them. See the example images.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
<br />
set surface_mode, int<br />
<br />
where ''int'' is one of the following values:<br />
<br />
* 0: Default mode, surfacing with respect to [[flag]]s.<br />
* 1: Surface everything, including HET and hydrogens<br />
* 2: Surface only heavy atoms<br />
* 3: Surface only visible<br />
* 4: Surface visible and heavy<br />
<br />
== Examples ==<br />

Image:sm0.png|[[surface_mode]] set to 0, the default. The galactose (blue) is not considered part of the surface.<br />
Image:sm1.png|[[surface_mode]] set to 1 -- now including heteroatoms. The galactose and all heteroatoms (blue) are now considered part of the surface and colored blue.<br />

set surface_mode, int<br />

where int is in the range of 0 to 4.<br />
