[Jmol-users] turn on and off molecules?

[Mike Brubaker]

Hi, all,               I’m new to using JMOL as an applet and I am currently loading multiple molecules from a single CML file in JMOLApplet version 8.  I have to primary problems or questions.    1.       Is there anyway to make each molecules bonds a particular color in order to distinguish them from one another?  These molecules were aligned on top of one another and with them all showing up with gray bonds, it’s impossible to tell which is which. 2.       Is there any functionality I can add or use that would allow me to “turn off and on” the display of individual molecules in the group as I’m viewing them?    I was told by a supervisor that these things were possible in JMOL, but I’m not seeing where or how they can be accomplished.  Thanks!   Mike Brubaker
