OK, I've checked in bug fixes for Jmol 11.6 and Jmol 11.7 that remove this odd +1 in the blue for the Jmol background. Oddly enough, now I can't get that effect even when I change it back or try the older Jar files. Go figure. This is better, though. Bob On Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 3:40 AM, Rolf

Hi, I started watching a documentary with VLC on my computer. I paused it, started Eclipse and launched Jmol application and I am quite puzzled by the result : the documentary is visible in the Jmol window ! I played again the documentary and put again the Jmol app in the foreground : the
