Thanks Angel!

The Jmol 1.6+ information is very useful.

Chuck, I'd say that is correct.

The major difference is: anything defined using SET is a global property for Jmol, which in general will apply to all the pertaining objects (but sometimes, as the measurement color, only to the subsequent instances of those objects).

On the other hand, things like atom and bond size, labels, etc are properties associated with particular atoms, so they are set individually per selected atom set.

An exception in your phrasing may be "bonds on" which I gather is a global setting too. BTW, Jmol 11.6+ does not accept "bonds on" any longer (a remnant from RasMol/Chime compatibility), requiring either "set bonds on" or the recommended "set showMultipleBonds on"
