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! ----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----- > Von: "Robert Hanson" <[email protected]> > An: [email protected] > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 25.
