Hi everyone.

Question about bond order and exporting: 
I'm working with an animation program which understands VRML. There are many 
molecular visualization tools out there and several can export to vrml...the 
problem is, I haven't found one that can display bond order AND export the 
resulting structure as vrml. I have heard that jmol can export vrml, though I 
don't see this option under file/export. Could someone tell me how to make this 
work?

Secondly...even if we could export vrml from jmol, I'm wondering if I can 
change the way bond order is displayed in jmol. Right now, a multiple bond is 
split into smaller cylinders...but as you turn the molecule, the cylinders 
rotate about the bond axis to remain parallel to the plane of view. Ideally, 
the cylinders would remain in a plane defined by the atoms alpha to the double 
or triple bonded atoms. Could this feature be implemented easily?


Thanks

Dan
