Objects

The PyMOL object notion is essentially something that can be seen in the viewer window.

molecular objects are the most elaborate objects.

map objects can be used to hold volumetric data such as electron density, tomographic maps, or electrostatic potentials.

mesh and surface objects can be used to display meshes, surfaces, dots, and gradients.

ramp objects can be used to color objects and representations according to proximity or map potential.
