According to a previous report of mine (which went into doc. in the Wiki) http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg09232.html in MOL format files, bond type 8 (described as "any") used to be interpreted by Jmol as partial bond. Now I see it is not so; bond is not drawn.
I'd like to know if this is intended, or I was wrong, or it is a bug in recent versions. 11.5.46 and 11.4.5 do not draw any bonds for type 8 11.3.11 draws them as partially double, or no bond, depending on the atom or its neighbors?. I understand that since MDL doc does not assign "partial" meaning to type 8, if may be more sensible for Jmol not to interpret as so. However, no bond at all where a bond is specified is not a faithful solution either. While I am at it, I also see that type 4 (aromatic) is rendered as partially double by 11.3.11 but as alternating single and double bonds by 11.4.5. I guess that's a conscious consequence of the recent "aromatic" and "calculate aromatic" commands, right? I'd rather prefer that the aromatic-specified bonds are drawn as partially double, but I won't push for it. Just want to mention is case it is an inadvertent change. Well, there's even more. Here's a summary across versions: bond type 4 11.3.11: aromatic (partially double) 11.4.5: alernating single and double bonds 11.5.46dev (8 july 08): aromatic (partially double) bond type 8 11.3.11: partially double !! 11.4.5: no bond 11.5.46dev (8 july 08): no bond in some cases, double in others!! I also note that in 11.5.46, some single bonds are drawn as double ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
