I have today released FirstGlance in Jmol version 2.00. As always, http://FirstGlance.Jmol.Org
This version needs no Java. By default, it uses JSmol (no Java), so it can run on computers where Java is not installed, or is unavailable (such as iPads). It can also run with Java, which greatly improves speed, performance, and smoothness of rotation of the molecule. There is a new Preferences tab, in which you can set it to default to using Java. Installing and enabling Java in various web browsers has become more and more challenging, so detailed instructions are linked to the Preferences tab. This version has no new capabilities for molecular display. It mainly makes using JSmol without Java much more user friendly (I hope!). I released this version with Jmol 14.0.13 because of some problem with isosurfaces in 14.0.14. My prior code (for "empty baskets" to show where residues are missing from the model due, usually, to crystallographic disorder) works in 14.0.13 but not in 14.0.14. The simple isosurface command works fine in 14.0.14 so I will need to spend time to determine what sequence of script commands in FirstGlance causes it to fail. Feedback welcome. There is always much more to do but feedback can alert me to issues I've overlooked, and help me set priorities.
