Hi Bob,

I set up a web page to clarify what I mean: 
http://weirdbyte.de/jmol-test/html/nav.html

There are three applet, showing a protein in the same orientation. The first 
applet shows the protein in the normal - non navigation - mode and has some 
atom obscuring most of the rest. The second applet is in navigation mode and 
has the default visualRange = 5 setting. According to the documentation this 
results in "any object in a plane that is less than 5.0 Angstroms across will 
be clipped automatically". And it works, giving a beautiful clear view, this is 
what I would like for the non navigation mode, too!. Applet 3 then is also in 
navigation mode but with visualRange set to 1 so that the notorious atom is not 
clipped automatically and obscures the view again, the reflection is nice 
though. I hope this makes my intention clear.


Best
Alexander


ps: congrats for your jmol related publication!
