Hi Pino Yes, this problem has been there always with reading MOLfile data. As Bob says, using the JME format for the transfer fixes it. You can see both demonstrated in my page (compare the 2 buttons) http://biomodel.uah.es/en/DIY/JME/JME.htm
If you still need to use MOL (as I do in my pages that do not use JME but other editors), the problem only affects a few very symmetrical molecules like cyclohexane and tert-butane. I just had the idea of changing the Z coord of one of the atoms (to break the symmetry) and it works for cyclohexane, see http://biomodel.uah.es/en/DIY/JME/JME2.htm but not for tert-butane as Jmol wrongly interprets tertiary carbons as planar (there was discussion about this some time ago and I guess some conclusion that I cannot remember, but I could not find a solution to apply to my page --but this is another issue.) PS: Could you please ammend my name in your page? Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got visibility?
