DESCRIPTION

clip alters the near and far clipping planes

USAGE

clip {near|far|move|slab|atoms}, distance [,selection [,state ]]

EXAMPLES

clip near, -5           # moves near plane away from you by 5 A
clip far, 10            # moves far plane towards you by 10 A
clip move, -5           # moves the slab away from you by 5 A
clip slab, 20           # sets slab thickness to 20 A
clip slab, 10, resi 11  # clip 10 A slab about residue 11
clip atoms, 5, pept     # clip atoms in "pept" with a 5 A buffer
                        # about their current camera positions

PYMOL API

cmd.clip( string mode, float distance, string selection = None)
