Dear RDKit Experts,

I have a question about drawing peptidomimetic compounds. I wanted to draw the 
peptides and let the backbone atoms appear in the most extended form. Please 
see the following ChemDraw picture as an example for what I was trying to 
achieve:
[cid:[email protected]]
The molecule shown above is inhibitor 
GC373<https://go.drugbank.com/drugs/DB15797>. The backbone atoms appear in the 
trans configuration. But this kind of “trans” configuration is about the 
directionality of bonds around the C-N and C-C single bonds, so I was unable to 
use the double bond configuration method (by characters ‘\’ and ‘/’) to enforce 
this type of structure by SMILES… :’(
My RDKit structure from SMILES looks like this:
[VDgAn4AAAAASUVORK5CYII=]

My question is: Is it possible to adjust the drawing method so I can let the 
backbone atoms lay out in the most extended form (the trans configuration as 
shown in the ChemDraw picture)? Thank you for your time and kind advice in 
advance.


Many Thanks,
Amy
