There is currently not good support for aromatic bonds in Jmol.

I was not aware that this was the notation for an aromatic bond in a .mol file. Please send me a small .mol as an example. > Any suggestions?

Well, sorta. You can certainly measure these things using RasMol script commands. However, the applet does not currently have user-interface gestures to support this. It is on the list of things to do. Miguel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
