Black-and-White Color in PLUTON

Three distinguishing options for plot-items using black-and-white colors are available:

  1. BWC global

  2. BWC atom-types

  3. BWC residues

  4. BWC ARU's

The associated patterns may be combined with the 'COLOR' options.

Current BWC & COLOR setting may be inspected with the ListTypes and ListARU instructions from the PLUTON/GeomTy sub-menu or the keyboard instructions LIST TYPES and LIST BONDS.

1 - BWC Global

Global pattern setting can be achieved either via the manu item from the PLUTON/Style menu or as a sub-keyword on the style instruction.

Example: SOLID GLOBE

2 - BWC Atom-Types

When active, atoms are displayed with an atom-type dependent pattern.

The default patterns can be customized with the BWC TYPE instruction or the SelPattern function on the PLUTON/Style menu.

3 - BWC Residue Types

Selection of the menu option res will assign a distinguishing pattern to each residue type (i.e. isolated species in the structure).

The default setting may be changed with an ARU instruction:

Example (resd #2): ARU DOTS 2

4 - BWC ARU-Types

Selection of the menu option ARU will assign a distinguishing pattern to each ARU.

Default settings may be changed with an ARU instruction:

Exaample: ARU GLOBE 2556.01
