It would be optional, for sure. And it doesn't change the public API. I'm not sure what you mean by a depiction module. I think it either has to go into libopenbabel, or else be cut+pasted into the top of pngformat.cpp, unless someone else has an alternative suggestion. I forgot about the existing PNG support. Yes, I guess it would have to be merged with this. Roundtripping should be no problem if we include a mol file in there, for example. - Noel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
