<div dir="ltr">Thanks Elaine,<div><br></div><div>I was able to get the effect by saving a separate image of just the ligand alone and a transparent background. I used different lighting/texture settings for the ligand only image. Then in photoshop I manually superimposed the brighter and shinier ligand on top of my original image. It worked out well, but requires a few steps to see what you get.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="m_37933297781490680gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Oliver</font></div></div></div></div></div>

In the Lighting dialog (in menu under Tools… Viewing Controls), you can drag the lights around to interactively adjust their directions, but at least in my experience trying to spotlight some area doesn’t help much because other things in the vicinity will be just as shiny.</div><div><br></div><div>It depends on what you’re showing, but you might try making everything except the ligand transparent.
