Bob, I'm working on a multi-user Jmol applet for Skype - i.e. server driven exchange during a Skype call. While I can send/receive model kit edited models, I'm running into problems with bond order. Models edited by atom replacement, breaking a bond, inverting a stereo center, and rotating a bond exchange nicely. Bond order other than zero (break) presents a problem. By way of example, if one user sends a model edited by a single to double bond edit, the other user receives the correct stoichiometry and sp2 geometry, but the sent double bond shows up as single in the receiving browser. Bonds edited to triple are also a problem.
I'm using Jmol save/restore state to make these transfers. While trying to track down the multi-user problem, I discovered that the problem is Jmol save/restore state. In other words, if I simply do a save/restore state locally in one browser, the same problems occur. Is this a bug or a misuse of Jmol state on my part? I'm pretty sure just using the extracted molfile would work, but exchanging the entire state would be better. I don't think the extracted molfile would send a model that was simply bond axis rotated. With the state transfer, one user can send another user a conformer rotation. This is all using 12.1.11_dev.
