Hi Tim,
Thanks for your help. Show orientation works fine on the console
window.
However, if I want to query the orientation and save the output in
some
variable for later use, how would I do that? I am trying to make
an easy
point and click interface for the user..
hi Sam,
I still use messagecallback, in this fashion:
1. add a messagecallback param to the applet tag. the messagecallback
function that I use saves messages into a js array.
2. add a button that calls javascript function1. this function clears
the array from (1), then sends the 'show orientation' command to
Jmol, then calls function2.
3. function2 reads the messages array and parses out the desired
coordinates. I post mine into a textarea, but you can just as easily
save it into a js variable.
this method is obviously dependent on a working messagecallback,
which does not work on some browsers. Bob Hanson was developing some
alternatives to callbacks but I don't know the status of that stuff -
you can check the list archives.
best,
tim

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to write some code to let the viewer rotate the molecule
to their
liking, then have a high resolution image made based on that
orientation. B
I wonder if there is some way to track and output the on-screen
orientation.
Once I know what rotations were applied in jmol, I can re-apply the
same
rotations in pymol to make my high-res image. Is it possible to
track the
angular orientation in this way?
hi Sam,
you can accomplish this with
show orientation
and messagecallback (or something similar from Bob's arsenal). the
command gives a well-formed string that is easily parsable.
