The current curly arrows don't look that clever from those directions. But that is OK as the user will simply rotate to see the full story. I think for the radical arrows having half a cone and always the top if the arrow is mainly horizontal at the end or the right if it is mainly vertical. Or maybe a translucent cone for single electrons and an opaque one for pairs. Or a differently coloured cone. Either might work well and be easy to implement. One might argue that the translucent idea is also in keeping with the lower weighting of the representation - fishhook v double headed -- Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2011-03-08 18:12 Message: Try to think of a nifty way to do this in 3D.

Re: [Jmol-developers] [ jmol-Feature Requests-3202918 ] Radical curly arrows
Would 3-D arrows with only the half of the arrow-head on the outside of the arc work? That's the only way I can imagine doing it in 3D that could be well defined. The problem with this is there would be some orientations where the arrowhead would be hard to see.
