Duan Lian, Please tell us a bit more about your PDB2PNG renderer. Specifically, why not just use the capability of Jmol to write PNG files? You can even do this in command-line mode without ever calling up a display. Is there something special that you are trying to do, or is it possible that you didn't realize that Jmol does this already.
For example: load =1crn cartoons on;color group write image 500 500 PNG "myfile.png" On Sat, Dec 6, 2008 at 11:30 AM, Duan Lian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, all > > WIth the code of other project integrating Jmol, I implemented an > PDB2PNG renderer by using JmolViewer and BufferedImage. > But the renderer is not perfect yet.
