Sorry if this is another silly question but is it possible to
remove the bottom

feel it just
gets in the way.
and Angel told him how, but added:
Ah, apart from teh advertising, the Jmol frank is good for opening
the popup menu by left-click. Further, it opens a reduced menu based
on the last item used (sort of a shortcut menu).
I've bitched about this before, but I think this is bad interface
design.
Graeme clearly did not guess that clicking on Jmol brought up the
menu because it just looks like a trademark. It would therefore be an
improvement in usability if the Jmol 'frank' (an inkmark defacing
your postage stamp, rather than a watermark you can only see if you
hold it up to the light) were replaced by an icon indicating a pull-
down menu. Some years ago I mocked up one (on the basis of comparison
with standard user interfaces) and suggested it to this list, only to
be met with a deafening silence, even though it incorporated the word
Jmol.
I can't find the page I mounted it on (or even a copy of my original
email) but have found the graphic and could mount it again if people
were interested.
