Hi Bernard, Thanks - "Extension->Modelling->Add Other Solvent Molecule" looks to be *exactly* what I am looking for - apart from the fact that I still cannot get it to generate the co-ordinates for GOL - which is what I assumed it would do.
If I centre the crosshairs on a GOL shaped blob, and do "Extension->Modelling->Add Other Solvent Molecule... [GOL]" I was expecting a GOL to appear at the crosshairs, like when I add a water, etc.? Have I got the wrong end of the stick?
