Hi Yannick,

I'm a bit confused by your question. What exactly are you trying to do?
What results are your trying to visualise?

Canonical labelling provides a unique index of atoms and bonds.

atoms can be easily mapped no matter what structure viewer I use?

The atom indexes in the SDfile are ordered they are in the molecule - all
cheminformatics toolkits should have this invariant.

Thanks,
John
