There appear to me to be bugs that hide dots inappropriately with "restrict" and "dots off" commands. These bugs are present in 10.2.0 and 10.x.46d. If those in the know agree that these are bugs, I'll submit this as a bug fix request.
Jmol, to its credit and unlike Chime, can add dots to newly selected atoms after some dots are already displayed, and even color them differently. For example, for 1d66, in 10.2.0, restrict none select :a dots color dots green # now there are green dots for chain A select :b dots # now CPK-colored dots have been added for chain B There appear to me to be two bugs in both versions. [In 10.x.46d there is a new bug: "color dots green" no longer works.] First, any restrict command (including "restrict not none" and "restrict all", which do not affect any renderings that I know of except dots) hides ALL dots. It seems to me that using "restrict" to hide a subset of atoms should not hide ALL dots -- it should hide dots only for the set hidden -- just as it does for spacefill, etc. Second, "dots off" hides ALL dots, even when preceded with "select none". Working around these bugs in FirstGlance in Jmol has required adding a lot of messy javascript. It would be great to have them fixed!
