Again, have a look at JChemPaint... the GUI is licensed GPL, but all the functionality, including the actual rendering engine is license as LGPL and can be found in the CDK, cdk.sf.net... The latter project, on which Jmol is based too, is a very interesting library of chemoinformatics algorithms, *and* is positive to usage in commercial projects too, though they highly appreciate code contributions... there are a few commercial packages based on it... > > I see some stero bonds ... there is currently some code to support > > triangular 'wedges' for stereo bonds, but that is all there is. > > That's all I need.

The JChemPaint applet (from the 1.9.x series) was a quick hack, but JChemPaint is actively being developed at two sites... If you have further concerns about the license, I would propose to contact on the cdk-devel and cdk-users lists and ask for comments there... I think there still are a few people subscribed from companies using CDK/JChemPaint in there proprietary software... > > Since we don't do 2D, maybe it isn't relevant yet. > > > > > In case Jmol is the wrong solution for above profile, I'd be very > > > thankful for suggestions.
