Spectrumany

Coloring with a gradient of different green shades

This script works similar to the spectrum command, but instead of predefined palettes, any color sequence can be used.

The color sequence is given by a space separated list of colors, so palette "red_white_blue" is the same as color sequence "red white blue".

Example

fetch 2x19

# these two produce the same result
spectrum count, red_white_blue, chain B
spectrumany count, red white blue, chain B

# gradient of different green colors
spectrumany count, smudge palegreen limegreen limon green forest, chain B

def spectrumany(expression, color_list, selection='(all)', minimum=None, maximum=None):

DESCRIPTION

    Define a color spectrum with as many color-stops as you like (at least 2).

USAGE

    spectrumany expression, color_list [, selection [, minimum [, maximum ]]]

ARGUMENTS

    expression = count, resi, b, q, or pc: respectively, atom count, residue
    index, temperature factor, occupancy, or partial charge {default: count}

    color_list = string: Space separated list of colors

    ... all other arguments like with `spectrum` command

EXAMPLE

    spectrumany count, forest green yellow white
    spectrumany b, red yellow white, (polymer), maximum=100.0
