I think the "set smallMoleculeMaxAtoms" will be implemented deep inside Jmol, not easy to substitute.

By "deactivate" or "disabled", what do you mean? No rendering at all? I would not expect "wireframe 1" to be very time consuming, compared to the actual reading and processing of all atom information during model load. Defining secondary structure and so setting cartoons is, that's the reason for the smallMoleculeMaxAtoms threshold. And what would "the opposite" be? Sorry I'm not getting the specifics you are aiming at. Is it proteins you are working with? Have you investigated about suppressing secondary structure calculation maybe? That could take a time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Jmol-users mailing list Jmol-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-users
