Other parameters

Parameter

Meaning

Default

escapeChar

Escape character to use for parsing the value of the mol parameter.

 

abbrevgroups

Replacing the built-in abbreviated group collection with a custom one. The parameter value is the location of the file containing the custom abbreviated groups. The location should be relative to the applet codebase.
Live applet example: MarvinSketch Example - Abbreviated groups

chemaxon/marvin /templates /default.abbrevgroup

autoCheckStructure

Enables (true) or disables (false) automatic structure check. To take effect, set statusBar parameter to true as well.

 false

customAbbrevgroups

You can add further abbreviations for the default.abbrevgroup contents with the contets of the files that can be specified with the help of this parameter. The parameter has to contain the path of the file relatively to the codebase.
It is possible to define more than one file, the separator character can be a comma(,) or a pipe(|) character.

 

abbrevgroupsAllowed

Enables/disables the usage of abbreviated groups. If the function is disabled, typing with the keyboard over the canvas will only allow changing atom and bond types.
Live applet example: MarvinSketch Example - Student Examination

true

userAbbrevGroupsAllowed

Enables/disables the usage of user defined abbreviated groups.

true

defaultSaveFormat

Sets the default chemical file format in the Save As dialog.

mrv

debug

Debug mode. Possible values: 0, 1, 2.

0

menuconfig

Specifies an alternative menu customization file location instead of the default .chemaxon/{MarvinSketch_version}/customization.xml (Unix) or chemaxon/{MarvinSketch_version}/customziation.xml (Windows) file under the user's home. Please note that if this parameter is used, the customizationEnabled parameter is automatically set to false.
If you use applet, the value of this parameter has to be an URL. It can be relative to the applet codebase (e.g. examples/applets/sketch/myconfig.xml). The applet codebase gives the location of the marvin directory on the server (e.g.: http://www.myserver.com/marvin ). Of course, the config file can be located on an other server, in this case you have to give the absolute URL of the config file (e.g.: http://www.otherserver.com/marvin-config/myconfig.xml ).

 

mergedst

Merge distance of atoms in C-C bond length units.

0.1

molFormat

Default file format: mol, csmol, smiles, cxsmiles, cml, pdb, pov, sybyl, or xyz.

mol

shortcuts

Specifies an alternative shortcut customization file location instead of the default .chemaxon/{MarvinSketch_version}/shortcuts.xml (Unix) or chemaxon/{MarvinSketch_version}/shortcuts.xml (Windows) file under the user's home. Please note that if this parameter is used, the customizationEnabled parameter is defaults to false.

 

symbols

Comma-separated list of symbols that will be always shown in the Insert Symbol popup. The symbols must be specified as font family name/Unicode code point pairs: fontname:codepoint. Fonts can be physical or logical. The logical fonts supported by the JRE: Serif, SansSerif, Monospaced, Dialog, and DialogInput.
Example (Δ,?): "SansSerif:U+0394,SanSerif:U+212B"

toolbarFloatable

Setting this parameter to false makes the toolbars immovable.

true

undo

Maximum number of undo operations.

50

viewHelp

MarvinView help contents.

 

viewQuickHelp

Marvin.

 

disablePluginsLookup

Set this to true if you want to disable the lookup for plugins.properties. To load plugins.properties form a location to enable the Tools menu, define the location of the file with toolfiles parameter.

false

defaultDatatransferPolicy

Set this to true if you want to disable the search of datatransfer.properties in the codebase, and use the default configuration (mostly suitable for every use case).

false

defaultTool

Sets the initial editing mode in the sketcher.
