I get it. The designed behavior would be OK but the problem/bug is as you
described secondly (for me at least)
I could listen to the messagecallback and fully terminate the pending
measurement from there (if the dismiss is reported there)

Re: [Jmol-developers] Measurement bug?

2014-09-09 Thread Robert Hanson
The normal, designed response is that any dragging of the model during a
measurement terminates the pending measurement. You must start again. If
that is all the problem is, then that's by design.

If the problem is that you lose some control over a pending measurement but
it continues to be in effect, then that's a bug.

 When I perform a measurement, sometimes the pre-dotted line
 disappears and I can't start the measurement over again (it's still in
 'progress' but kind of broken because you can't just finish the 
 'invisible'
 measurement by clicking an atom)
 Does anyone recognize this behaviour?
 It would be great if this can be improved/patched (a hover style
 for an atom would also be very cool)

 Thanks!
 Herman

[Jmol-developers] Measurement bug?

2014-09-08 Thread Herman Bergwerf
This is actually an old bug but I was wondering if it is possible to fix it.
When I perform a measurement, sometimes the pre-dotted line disappears and
I can't start the measurement over again (it's still in 'progress' but kind
of broken because you can't just finish the 'invisible' measurement by
clicking an atom)
Does anyone recognize this behaviour?
It would be great if this can be improved/patched (a hover style for an
atom would also be very cool)

Thanks!

This is news to me. See if you can describe a reproducible way of
generating the problem.

Re: [Jmol-developers] Measurement bug?

2014-09-08 Thread Herman Bergwerf
I can't find a way to reproduce the exact issue but I can reproduce the
behaviour:

goto http://molview.org
click Jmol  Measurement  Torsion (4 atoms)
click 1st atom
click 2nd atom AND HOLD + DRAG
try to finish your measurement (works sometimes but pre-dotted line is gone)

I'm not sure if there is something else causing this issue too or I'm
dragging the pointer ~1px every time this happens.

I let you know if I find a better method.
