Thank you very much, now it works well.....but.... At the moment the maximum ratio between sphere radii is 5. But in the future I plan to visualize spheres with very different radii, and this will be a problem. I made some experiments and I saw that the maximum radius allowed is 16.38. In the jmol documentation they say that a radius smaller than 0.9 will be set to 0.9. I made some experiments and this is approximately true. This mean that the maximum radii ratio that can be visualized correctly is about 18 (if the lengths are conveniently scaled). Is there a solution if I would like to visualize packings of spheres with very different radii, say for example 1:100 or more?
