Bob, I'm trying to circumvent the lack of a modifier key (ALT) on an iPad when switching between drag translation and rotation of individual multiple models.
On an iPad and laptop, these two scripts do exactly what I want: 1) CLICK/DRAG TRANSLATES: set picking off; set picking ON; set atomPicking true; set picking dragmolecule; 2) CLICK/DRAG ROTATES: set picking off; set picking ON; set atomPicking true;set picking dragmolecule;set allowRotateSelected TRUE;bind "drag" "_rotateselected"; Number 1 does not worry me. In the case of number 2, I'm concerned that the script is not working according to your intentions - i.e. it might change in the future. Specifically, every component in script 2 is required to make this work on an iPad. I should mention that it's possible that "set picking off; set picking ON;" is not required. I do that as a matter of habit because it seems to avoid problems. Every other script command is required: set atomPicking true;set picking dragmolecule;set allowRotateSelected TRUE;bind "drag" "_rotateselected" As an aside, I want to mention again that the performance of the JSmol model kit on an iPad Air Safari is remarkable. I had pretty much given up hope on this several months ago. Android Chrome isn't too shabby either.
