      • Checking the 'Use molecules as templates at 2D cleaning' checkbox will effect the structures containing that template during cleaning of the structure: the default cleaning form is overwritten by the template structure. This way, you can cutomize your drawings: add or draw a set of templates and check this option.

      • Any structure can be added to the My Templates group.

        • Using Drag & Drop to the toolbar

      • Display the structure of Templates without name

        • If the template does not have a name, hovering the cursor over its icon on the template toolbar magnifies the image on the icon. This improves the visibility of the template icon, especially for big structures.
