Color" menu or the color command.</div><div><br></div><div>If menu, in version 1.5 (daily build), choose "Actions... Color... all options" and in that dialog set "coloring applies to" to "residue labels" and then do the coloring. In earlier versions, choose "Actions... Color... residue labels" and then use that menu again to do the coloring. Either version, you should probably change back from "residue labels" to "all of the above" again after coloring the labels to avoid later confusion. </div><div><br></div><div>If command, you would just put a modifier right after the color name. Modifiers include ",l" (letter ell) for labels, ",lr" for residue labels, etc. as documented here:</div><div><<a href="http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/color.html">http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/color.html</a>></div><div>Example: color hot pink,lr :52</div><div>to color residue label only of residue 52 hot pink. No space after the comma.</div><div><br></div><div>2. yes, use menu item "Actions... Label... Residue... custom" to set custom residue label contents.
