Dear Bob, Your addition is very nice: I've played with. funny. Unfortunately, I am interested in ... 3D circle :-P
I'll try to use a(n awfull) hack to do this (with polygons).. While playing with 11.5.25, I've noticed a bug which is probably due to the introduction of the capability to draw circles. The bug can be reproduced with the attached file by issuing the commands load test.xyz draw (atomno=1) (atomno=2) (atomno=3) You will notice that an unwanted circle is drawn around the first atom. All the very best, MAx Bob Hanson wrote:
Jmol 11.5.25 draws circles. See http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/new.htm and http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/Jmol-11_5.zipI think this is a very nice addition. Max, I hope you were thinking of circles the way I was -- not 3D, but 2D -- and that this will be useful to you. 3D would be considerably harder.Bob Latévi Max LAWSON DAKU wrote:Many thanks, Bob, for implementing this feature.

I guess there is one but cannot find it (googling orsearching the mails I received don't help). Thanks in advance for telling me how to proceed. All the best, Maxno, there is not.Many thanks, Bob, for your answer.Could you, please, consider enabling the drawing an arc of a circle or a circle,by issuing a command like 1) circle [object_id] \ CENTER <{x y z} || (atom_expr)> \ PLANE <a_plane_id || (atom_expr)> \ RADIUS <the_radius> \ [ANGLE <default=360>] \ COLOR <color> \ [FILLED || NOFILLED] or 2) circle [object_id] \ CENTER <{x y z} || (atom_expr)> \ NORMAL <{u v w}> \ RADIUS <the_radius> \ [ANGLE <default=360>] \ COLOR <color> \ [FILLED || NOFILLED] In the first case, one gives the plane in which the circle must be drawn; in the second case, one rather gives the normal to this plane. I don't know how demanding the implementation of this feature will be ... but I am quite sure this may be useful for representing and/or following in schemes structural data, such as angles or distances, as in the case I am interested in. Thanks in advance for considering my request.
