Thanks, Angel, that is a good thought. But I agree with you that
halos lack a 3D aspect. So they're not appropriate for conveying the
size and shape of, for example, most ligands. They are great for
highlighting a subset of atoms and I think that's their best use.
I think dot density control would be a good thing for Jmol, but it's
not a high priority.

Frieda, have you tried halos? If I remember correctly, they can be
sized at %vdW and their
color chosen (I don't mean selectionHalos). They are not 3D, but
they are something; I think
I tried then once because dots were barely visible.

In some situations, yes, translucent spheres will serve, but not
in all. An example is showing a
ball and stick structure with dots around it. A translucent
surface would work there, but dots is an
easier/simpler solution, I think. It also has quite a distinctive
look.
