Thanks Angel -- Yes, it definitely turned out to be a memory issue. My inexperience is another! I was stumped since the Jmol graphic stopped responding, but Jmol itself was still running and doing stuff -- I could still enter commands into the console and get appropriate responses. Now I know

I've gone ahead and added for Jmol 11.6.RC12 the applet param tag maximumSize. This can be set to a maximum size for which the height and width are not allowed to exceed when resizing. I think this will be a more user-friendly option. The way to invoke it would be jmolInitialize(...)

Hi Tom I'm probably late in joining this thread, but since there has been no final comment, here's my 2 cents 1) Your problem looks to me as more related to a specific browser and JVM that to Jmol version (but I may be wrong). Of course, memory is an issue. 2) i) be able to stipulate the

You have total control over the popup characteristics -- it's your page! The only reason it's resizing is that you have percentages listed in the jmolApplet command, I think. Bob On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 4:30 PM, Thomas Stout [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Yes: I've seen the users make the windows

It's odd that the question about syncing with pop-up applet windows came up today just as I noticed the following: with the applet (version 11.6RC7) creating pop-up windows with the contents of an applet in a web page works just fine, but when re-sizing that pop-up window, the structure

Hmmm - thanks Rolf. It sounds like it would be best to avoid the end-user arbitrarily resizing the popup window to make it larger/smaller My beta-test users are all trying to make the popup window larger by dragging the browser window (or using the maximize button in the upper right window

Yes, the display fails just on re-sizing the window (no model manipulation). Without re-sizing the window, one can manipulate the model and do anything one wishes with Jmol with complete stability. Curiously, the popup window is more resistant to this blanking effect using MS IExplorer than with

I've confirmed the out-of-memory issue. Adding -Xm256M into my Java control panel (found this info on the Jmol wiki: http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Jmol_Applet) seems to eliminate the problem BTW, does anyone know how to achieve this for a browser running on linux? Cheers, Tom On Wed,

There's your answer. Out of memory. How big are these resizes? height/width? I wonder if a settable maximumWindowSize option might be in order here. Bob On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 3:00 PM, Thomas Stout [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Exception in thread AWT-EventQueue-3 java.lang.OutOfMemoryError:

Yes: I've seen the users make the windows pretty big (especially when they hit the maximize window button in the upper right of the browser window -- the window then becomes as large as the monitor some of those are in the 2000 pixels dimensions now). I'd be interested in two possible solutions:
