You are correct. Jmol puts the label a few pixels in front of the atom. RasMol/Chime always display labels on top of the molecule. > however, I am in the process of converting many hundreds of Chime > resources to Jmol, and a lot of the labels are obscured because of > this behavior. since I don't have time to manually tweak all of the > labels in all of the resources, I thought I'd ask: is there a way to > force Jmol (via script command) to use the old "Chime-style" label > behavior, where the labels always appear in front of the entire > structure? There is currently no script command for this. This is the first time I recall anyone asking for this. I don't think it would be difficult to add, but someone would have to do the work.
