Dave,
We have now added a more direct and convenient way of viewing and
contouring electron density maps on Android tablets and iPad using
iMolview <http://www.molsoft.com/iMolview.html>. To do this:
1. Download iMolview from iTunes
<https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/imolview/id431002306?mt=8>or Google
Play
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.molsoft.imolview&hl=en>.
2. Go to Tools/Load Electron Density Map.
Once a map is loaded you can toggle its display using the 'Misc' panel
in the main menu (see a screenshot here
<http://www.molsoft.com/news.html#imv1_7>). The map can be contoured
around selected atoms:
- Select a region of the molecule you wish to contour.
- Click on the contour icon in the 'Misc' panel on the pain menu.
- Contouring level can be adjust using slider in the 'Tools' menu.
Thanks,
Andy

Hello all,
So, I find an ipad is a wonderful device for teaching (any tablet
really - but I'm partial to the ipad). I can project it in a
classroom, run pymol and a few other chemistry/biochemistry things,
and really get the students interested in these subjects easily. I
actually don't have a laptop - and our classrooms are such that there
are computers connected to the projectors but they have standard
University software packages installed on them.
It would be very helpful if I could just display electron density
using an ipad. The pymol app will load a map (it is an option) - but
when I take a map from my linux machines it doesn't work. Any
thoughts here? Has anybody done this
Thanks
Dave
