Custom pop-up menus

Jmol (both application and applet) allows a customized pop-up menu instead of the standard default menu. Their definition and use are explained in Custom Menus.

Examples:

• Default menu is built using this: jmol.mnu
• An example of custom menu: test.mnu

Users, if you design a new menu, please, share it here.

SimpleBio

This is devised to ease the handling of the menu by inexperienced users with only basic tasks, in tutorial pages of simple biomolecules.

It includes just these entries:

• Style - with simplified contents.
• Color - compacted to have less submenu nesting.
• Spin - just with on/off, no axes or speed options.
• Select - a bit simplified.
• Advanced ^(*) - a new entry including:
  • Choose menu ^(*) - that allows to revert to the standard full menu.
  • Language
  • Console
• About

(*) These are new entries, and so will not be localized; you may wish to edit them for your intended language.

You can get this custom menu here.
