Jmol + JSmol Documentation

A more recent list of changes is compiled in SorceForge project pages, and listed and linked from the Jmol website: www.jmol.org/history/ (see 'History of Changes' section there).

New in version 10.2

  • Easier zoom, perspectiveDepth on or off switching
  • 'hbonds on' does not calculate hbonds anymore. Instead, use 'hbonds calculate'. This enables the separation of hbonds data present in the pdb file (e.g. calculated by a separate algorithm) and hbond information as calculated by the Jmol hbond algorithm.
  • Extended label formatting options, printing three-letter, one-letter amino acid codes possible, also including all available atom information (e.g. coordinates) in the label.
  • The pop-up menu when right-clicking the applet can be disabled with 'set disablePopupMenu TRUE'. The pop-up menu itteself also can be tweaked.
  • An advanced selection option based on connectivity is introduced: select connected It can for example select based on the amount of connections an atom has, or to which atom it is connected.
  • Default atomtype coloring within a running applet can be changed by e.g. 'color hydrogen yellow'. Coloring of specific selections overrides the default coloring, as before.
  • Complete control of drawing bonds between (selected) atoms is now possible with the 'connect' command. Drawing of hydrogen bonds, double, triple, aromatic bonds is possible.
  • Orbitals and electron density and other information can now be drawn as isosurface or pmesh.
  • Advanced polyhedra bonds are introduced.
  • The stars command creates better visibility of selected atoms.


New in versions older than 10.2
