What is the simplest command to toggle spinning? I am already using Angel's "bullet proof" method, which involves messageCallback and message parsing.
With the new variables in Jmol, I would think something along these lines would be possible: spin = !spin set spin = !spin if (spin); spin off; else; spin on; end if; but none of those work in Jmol applet 11.3.51. Under "variables with special meanings" are listed spinX, spinY, spinZ, spinFps, but spinY and spinFps return "not set" or a blank string (as in "x = spinFps"), despite "show spin" listing values for each. More generally, while some "special variables" seem to behave as I'd expect, such as "show zoomLarge" shows "zoomlarge = true" "show backgroundcolor" shows "backgroundcolor = "[x000000]" "show hoverdelay" shows "hoverdelay = 0.5" "show ribbonborder" shows "ribbonborder = false" and indeed "zoomlarge = !zoomlarge" toggles the Boolean value of this variable, other "special variables" including the spin variables don't seem to work this way (Jmol 11.3.51), e.g. "show frank" shows "frank = ?" ditto for "show solvent" ditto for fontsize <not set> for messagecallback (even though it is set) Please advise.
