[PyMOL] surface transparency not chaning

Hello Pymol users,

As anyone experienced an instance where the surface transparency remained
stuck in one color? I changed it to pink a while back. However, now issuing
the comand:

set surface_color, green, object1

does nothing. Object1 is the object I want to color. Even if I try to
change the surface color globally it doesn't work (set surface_color,
green, all)

I would appreciate any help I can receive. Thank you.
