I see. You must be using JME format to pass the data. Jmol has indeed a reader 
for JME, 
though is is declared as "not fully supported".

If I request Show > File Contents from Jmol, I see it as e.g.

8 8 C 9.44 -7.81 C 9.44 -6.41 C 8.23 -5.71 C 7.02 -6.41 C 7.02 -7.81 C 8.23 
-8.51 C 8.23 -
4.31 C 8.23 -9.91 1 2 1 2 3 1 3 4 1 4 5 1 5 6 1 6 1 1 3 7 -1 6 8 -1

What I see is that the wedge-drawn bonds are specified as -1 bond order, and 
for some 
arcane reason Jmol is drawing them as wedge shaped bonds.
They can be redefined using
        connect {C3} {C7} single
but by far the best solution is that you use MOL format for transferring the 
structure between 
JME and Jmol.

Also, I think you are really not retaining any stereo info, the model arrives 
flat, so whether 
you get the chair or boat is purely coincidential.


A separate question:

Does that mean you draw them manually? Or do you have some way of doing that in 
one 
go?

I've worked on my own 2D to 3D tool and faced that limitation.
