Dear Angel and Paul, For some reason I didn't receive your replies to my email, and it doesn't appear to be possible to reply to them via the online archive, so apologies for (presumably) starting a new thread with this email.
Anyway, thanks very much for your suggestions, which I copy below. 1. "That's not one of Jmol features, although as you have found you may get some results playing with the lighting options. Right now I cannot provide advice on that, but maybe this http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Lightweight_JSmol#Model_rendering gives you what you need, as long as you are dealing with small molecules in mol format" The "shadeatoms false" jsmol image looks quite a lot like what I want, so I will give that a try. Essentially, what I would like is for everything to be flat and of a single colour (per element, of course), with uniformly thck black outlines. Sorry for not being more specific before. There are other ways in which I can achieve such a simple representation of course, but it would be nice to be able to use Jmol if possible, although it seems not to be. 2. " Oh yes! Go to the documentation page, http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/ and search for "outline" and you have set celShading TRUE set celShadingPower (integer) Is that what you were looking for? So it seems to me" Not quite, since the black lines around the atoms and bonds are non-uniform and scale with the size of the atom, and also change with the angle from which the structure is veiwed. 3. halos mays also be an option http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#halos Thanks for the suggestion. I will try playing around with halos. Best regards, Matthew
