Jmol users: Jmol 11.2 has been released. The following list summarizes the changes since the most recent release, Jmol 11.0.
Please note that the default perspective model has been set to 11 instead of 10. This means that users who are installing this release in web sites now using earlier versions of Jmol and use scripted "zoom" or "moveto" or related commands will notice a difference. Tests on installed web sites should be done, and if the appearance is not as desired, "set perspectiveModel 10" can be used when the applet is loaded to force Jmol to use the old perspective model. Differences in models can be investigated using <http://www.stolaf.edu/academics/chemapps/jmol/docs/examples-11/perspective.htm> or, of course, your own web site. Zoom values in the new model can result in substantially different structure sizes. The decision to move to using perspectiveModel 11 as default was not an easy one. Advantages of using the new model include that (a) the zoom level is now linearly dependent upon the zoom value, (b) there is substantially improved rendering of balls and sticks at very high levels of zoom, and (c) molecular "navigation" is possible. A discussion of the details of the Jmol 11 perspective model can be found at http://www.stolaf.edu/chemapps/jmol/docs/misc/navigation.pdf In addition, users who wish to use all the features of Jmol 11.2 EXCEPT the new perspective model can use the prerelease version 11.1.49, which is listed along with 11.2.0 on the download page at <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23629>. The only difference between these two versions is the default perspectiveModel setting. See http://www.stolaf.edu/chemapps/jmol/docs/examples-11/new2.htm for details and examples of the following features: 52. perspectiveModel 11 now default 51. load "xxx::filename" 50. isosurface options BACKLIT, FULLYLIT, FRONTLIT 49. isosurface POCKET, INTERIOR, and minSET n 48. hypertext links for ECHO 47. new "javascript" command and x = javascript("...")
