Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: distance/angle measurement in movies Initial Comment: up to version 4, the measurement of an angle or distance etc. was visible in all fromes of an animation. this was enormous useful, because one could track a certain distance during a configuration change. in all new versions, this no more possible (the measurement semms to be connected to a single frame) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Rene Kanters (rkanters) Date: 2005-02-26 08:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=905185 I only got involved with Jmol after version 4, so I don't know what was possible then. I believe that currently that is indeed not possible (so you aren't overlooking anything). The reason may be the following (I don't know, maybe Miguel can elaborate). There is no reason to assume (nor inform Jmol) that the models in each frame are representations of the same molecules or even the same sets of atoms. Thus the distance between atoms 1 and 2 in one frame could be that between Fe and Cl, while in another one between C and H. I agree that probably in a lot of cases of output from calculations or simulations each frame contains the same atoms in the same order. I have come across cases where I wished I could do exactly what you are asking for.
