View Menu MS

This menu allows you to alter the way the molecule is displayed without modifying the structure file itself. You can change the molecule display type, background color, color scheme, error highlighting, etc. See also: Structure Display Options. The View menu also contains operations to change the graphical user interface.

Mouse Mode > Sketch	The Sketch mode allows drawing into the canvas.
Mouse Mode > Zoom	Zoom the content of the canvas by dragging the mouse without modifying atom coordinates.
Mouse Mode > Reset View	Restores the starting view as modified by rotation and zoom.
Zoom Level	Allows you to select a magnification percentage from the list or to type a custom percentage.
Structure Display > Atom Symbols in 3D	Sets atom symbol visibility in 3D mode. Note that in 3D mode, atoms may become invisible in Wireframe and Stick mode by hiding atom symbols.
Structure Display > Wireframe	Displays bonds as thin lines, and atoms (except Carbon) as symbols.
Structure Display > Wireframe with Knobs	Displays bonds as thin lines, Carbon atoms as knobs, and other atoms as symbols.
Structure Display > Stick	Displays bonds as thick lines, and atoms (except Carbon) as symbols.
Structure Display > Ball and Stick	Displays bonds as thick lines, atoms as shaded balls, and atoms (except Carbon and Hydrogen) as symbols on balls.
Structure Display > Spacefill	Displays atoms as large shaded balls, and atoms (except Carbon and Hydrogen) as symbols on the balls.
Colors > Monochrome	Displays all atoms with default drawing color.
Colors > CPK	Displays all atoms with Corey-Pauling-Kultun colors.
Colors > Shapely	This color scheme is based on RasMol's shapely color scheme for nucleic and amino acids.
Colors > Group	Coloring atoms based on PDB residue numbers.
Colors > Atom/Bond Sets	Colors atoms and bonds according to the color of the pre-defined set they belong to.
Colors > Peptide Bridges	Colors with different colors the new Peptide Bridge bonds which are crosslinking the peptide chains.
Colors > Background	Sets custom background color with adjusted default drawing color.
Colors > White Background	Sets the background color to white and the default drawing color to black.
Colors > Black Background	Sets the background color to black and the default drawing color to white.
Stereo > R/S Labels > All possible	Always show atom chirality (R/S) including not defined stereocenters (?) .
Stereo > R/S Labels > All	Always show atom chirality (R/S).
Stereo > R/S Labels > Absolute Stereo	Show atom chirality if chiral flag is set for the molecule or the atom's enhanced stereo type is absolute.
Stereo > R/S Labels > None	Do not show atom chirality (R/S).
Stereo > E/Z Labels	Toggles the display of absolute double bond stereo configuration labels. Bonds known to have an (E) or (Z) configuration will be marked as such.
Stereo > M/P Labels	Toggles the display of axial stereochemistry labels M and P:
Stereo > Absolute Labels	Toggles the display of the Absolute label if the chiral flag is set on the molecule.
Implicit Hydrogens > On All	View hydrogens by symbol on all atoms. This option is disabled in Spacefill and Ball & Stick display modes.
Implicit Hydrogens > On Hetero and Terminal	View hydrogens by symbol on hetero and terminal carbon atoms. This option is disabled in Spacefill and Ball & Stick display modes.
Implicit Hydrogens > On Hetero	View hydrogens by symbol on hetero atoms only. This option is disabled in Spacefill and Ball & Stick display modes.
Implicit Hydrogens > Off	Disable hydrogens by symbol on all atoms.
Peptide Display > 1-letter	View peptide sequence with 1-letter aminoacid codes.
Peptide Display > 3-letter	View peptide sequence with 3-letter aminoacid codes.
Advanced > Atom Numbering > Off	Disable the visibility of atom indices.
Advanced > Atom Numbering > Atom Number	Enable the visibility of unique internal atom indices. The indices are continuous starting from 1.
Advanced > Atom Numbering > IUPAC Numbering	Enable the visibility of IUPAC numbering of atoms in a molecule. It is synchronized with the numbering of Structure to name option.
Advanced > Atom Properties	Toggles the visibility of atom properties.
Advanced > Atom Mapping	Toggles the visibility of atom mapping labels.
Advanced > Graph Invariants	Toggles the display of graph invariants (canonical labels).
Advanced > Bond Lengths	Toggles the display of bond lengths in Angstroms on the middle of the bonds.
Advanced > Lone Pairs	Toggles the display of lone pairs.
Advanced > R-groups	Toggles the display of R-group definitions.
Advanced > R-logic	Toggles the display of R-logic definitions.
Advanced > Valence	Toggles the display of valence numbers. Default setting is On.
Advanced > Ligand Error	Toggles the display of ligand errors. Default setting is On.
Advanced > S-group Attachment	Toggles the display of the attachement points. Default setting is On.
Pages > Fit Page Width	Adjusts the width of the current page to the width of the canvas.
Pages > Fit Page Height	Adjusts the height of the current page to the height of the canvas.
Pages > Fit Page	Adjusts the current page so that the whole current page will be placed centralized within the canvas.
Pages > Previous Page	Goes to the previous page of multipage molecular document.
Pages > Next Page	Goes to the next page of multipage molecular document.
Pages > First Page	Goes to the first page of multipage molecular document.
Pages > Last Page	Goes to the last page of multipage molecular document.
Pages > Goto Page	Goes directly to a specific page by entering a number in the appearing dialog window.
Open MarvinSpace	Launches a MarvinSpace window containing the current molecule from the Sketcher.
Toolbars > Toolbars	Sets the visibility of individual toolbars.
Menubar	Sets the visibility of the main menubar.
Status Bar	Sets the visibility of the status bar.
Grid	Toggles the display of the grid.
Guideline	Toggles the display of the moveable guidelines.
Editor Style > Configurations	Lists the available configurations, and allows quick switch.
Editor Style > Configuration Settings	Configurations are GUI alternatives storing whole menu, toolbar and popup personalizations. This makes easy to define and quickly change the GUI for various purposes like sketching, publishing, teaching, etc.
Editor Style > Reset Current Configuration	Removes all local modifications made on the active GUI configuration. Note that this action cannot be undone.
Editor Style > Customize	Customization allows you to personalize the GUI of MarvinSketch including menus, toolbars and keyboard shortcuts.
