VEGA can calculate Van Der Waals and accessible to solvent molecular
surfaces. The default calculation is the water accessible surface (1.4 Å sphere radius of
the probe), but it is posasible to change the solvent radius (probe), and if you set the
probe radius to null, VEGA calculates the Van Der Waals surface. The standard point
density is 10 dots per Å2, but also this value can be changed. At the end of
the surface calculation, in the console you can read the area in Ų and the range of
values assigned at each dot.
The surface color can be selected by property, by atom and by color
with the slider or with the color table
