OH, one more thing -- with the
load ""
option -- empty quotes -- you can reload any file with different parameters:
load "" unitcell {........} spacegroup "......"
and if you want a really neat effect, use:
set refreshing false
save orientation
load "" unitcell {........} spacegroup "......"
restore orientation
set refreshing true
What you should see is a delay while the file is opening, then the
modification will be displayed with no flicker of transition. There are
even ways of saving just the parts of the state that relate to the
cartoons and such, so that could even be restored if desired.
And, of course, you could use:
load APPEND "" unitcell {........} spacegroup "......"
so that you could then compare models, overlay them, shift them relative
to each other, etc.....
Jmol is pretty powerful in this area. Not many people have realized how
powerful the Jmol scripting+math combination is, I think. I'd like to
see more people capitalizing on these capabilities.
