Hi,

Thanks for the information about how to store the partial charges and
periodic information in xyz file.

After looking through the various menus, I couldn't figure out how to
display the partial charge information.
I'm using jmol version 11.8.7.

Are the partial charges supposed to show up as color variations or as
numeric labels next to the atoms?
How does one turn on the display of partial charges?

Sincere thanks,

-Tom
