Bob, I find this very attractive. Loading takes time when the server is not close, and that could help much. In fact, I always expected that the split of JmolApplet into 6 jar files would do that, but it seems not to be so. Yes, I think that reduced functionality would be enough in many cases

[I appreciate these answers -- I'm still not getting the originals for some unknown reason.] The command is select atomno=8 or atomno=9; wireframe 0.1 "or" here because we need to include both atoms in the set. In 11.1.16 you can select bonds directly: select [{0}] selects the first bond, fo

In 11.1.x we are recommending going to a simpler method of naming models in multiple file mode: Files have each one model: 1.1, 2.1, 3.1, Files have more than one model: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, ... 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 etc. Then, in analogy to model 0 for displaying all models, now we have: model

2007-03-02 Thread Frieda Reichsman
Glad it works. In general, 'and' signifies an additional requirement for the selection set, as in, select helix and carbon which selects all the carbon atoms that are in the alpha helices (of a protein), and no carbon atoms in other parts of the structure. But it is easy to slip up. Frieda

Thanks Frieda, I can't say I'd have guessed the operator was "or". It works fine. I'd prefer something neater like "select atomno=8,9 and 10.11" but I can live with this. Thanks again Nick --- Message: 3 Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2007 15:19:30 -0500 From: Frieda Reichsman <[EMAIL

Dear Bob, Interesting ideas! I guess I'm not convinced that the applet size is enough of a problem to justify the complexity of what you propose. However, Jmol is bound to keep growing, so eventually an AppletLite may be more justifiable.a -Eric --

Jmol users, I have an idea for slimming down the Jmol applet and need comments. The idea is that few people will use ALL the capabilities of Jmol. Perhaps there should be a set of Jar files that are optional add-ons to a basic package. This package might have just a couple of file readers, no

Depending oinn how literally you took Angels' command syntax - perhaps it's just that you need to use 'or' (in place of 'and'). So for example, select atomno=8 or atomno=9 color bonds cyan works for me in Jmol11.1.12. Frieda On Mar 2, 2007, at 2:55 PM, Greeves, Nick wrote: Hi Angel,

Some cool color effects could be obtained more easily if we could use variable names in RGB or hex colors in Jmol. For example, I tried using something like: redness=0 message = _here1 color [EMAIL PROTECTED], 0, 0] @redness= redness+5 refresh if ... etc. but Jmol did not like the redness var
