Examples

Setting volume colors with one line:

fetch 1a00, map, type=2fofc, async=0
volume vol, map
volume_color vol, .8 cyan 0. 1. blue .3 2. yellow .3 

Using a named color ramp:

volume_ramp_new cyanblueyellow, \
    .8 cyan 0. \
    1. blue .3 \
    2. yellow .3
volume_color vol, cyanblueyellow

Getting the current volume ramp:

PyMOL>volume_color vol

     0.80, 0.00, 1.00, 1.00, 0.00, \
