Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: cpudney (cpudney) >Assigned to: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Summary: loadType parameter for JmolApplet Initial Comment: G'day, There are instances in which the Resolver infers the wrong format for data passed to JmolApplet using the loadInline parameter, e.g. http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg11466.html It would be useful if it were possible to bypass the Resolver by specifying to the applet the format of the data in the loadInline parameter. This would mirror the behaviour of the "load" script command: http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#load One possible approach might be to add a loadType parameter which is passed one of the supported format identifiers. If loadType is not supplied (or is invalid) then the Resolver is used to determine the data format, e.g. <param name="loadType" value="MopacGraphF" /> <param name="loadInline" value=" 4 MOPAC-Graphical data Version 2007.7.156W| 8 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 -0.4225| 6 1.2108153 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.2364| ..." /> would solve the problem in the aforementioned example. The Jmol.js library could also provide an interface to this new parameter. Thanks, Chris. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2008-11-02 19:09 Message: Chris, it's probably a good idea, but.... It is important to have the EXACT file format. The reason Jmol is so particular is that often if the format is incorrect, the file will be read incorrectly. In this case, the MOPAC specification requires: Block 1, 1 line: Number of atoms (5 characters), plain text: "MOPAC-Graphical data", and version number That's a bit unclear -- there's a space between the number and "MOPAC". That is what Jmol is looking for. You have "MOPAC" in position 4, not position 6. This should read: <param name="loadInline" value=" 4 MOPAC-Graphical data Version 2007.7.156W| 8 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 -0.4225| 6 1.2108153 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.2364| ..." /> Bob ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=379136&aid=2217513&group_id=23629 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Jmol-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-developers
