It might be keeping the legacy mode (Rasmol-compatible) or specifying units for e.g. bond thickness. Integer values are read as * 1/250 Angstrom. e.g. "wireframe 2" and "wireframe 2.0" are not the same. It's always being that way and you must include a decimal point to force angstroms. I'm not sure if this applies to drawings, but the custom is always use decimal values when you mean angstroms, to be sure. > > BTW, these behaviors are still present in 13.0.
