Summary: Radical curly arrows

Initial Comment:
We have had 3D curly arrows for normal two-electron reactions for some time 
and they work well.
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/draw.htm

I notice that there has been almost no discussion on this list about radical 
reactions that involve unpaired electrons and are conventionally represented by 
curly arrows with half a head sometimes called fishhook arrows.
http://chemistry2.csudh.edu/rpendarvis/Radicals.html#homolyt

We are working on representing radical reactions and would like to be able to 
show the mechanisms in 3D with fishhook curly arrows. Could this be done in 
Jmol ?

I don't think the view when the arrow is pointing directly at the viewer of
directly away is critical. 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

Try to think of a nifty way to do this in 3D. Remember that that head could
be pointing straight at the user, or perpendicular to the screen, or
straight away. What would work for that?

Re: [Jmol-developers] [ jmol-Feature Requests-3202918 ] Radical curly arrows

2011-03-08 Thread Jonathan Gutow
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.
