Display parameters

Parameter

Meaning

Default

addRemoveHatomsEnabled

Add/Remove Explicit Hydrogens is enabled or disabled in the Structure menu. It will be disabled if this parameter is false.

true

atomStrings

Comma-separated list of string type atom properties to be enabled.

  • alias - atom aliases

  • pseudo - pseudoatoms

  • smarts - SMARTS query atom string

  • value - atom values

Example: "smarts".

 

autoscale

How to display a loaded molecule:

  • "true" - fit to the applet's window

  • "false" - use default scaling

false

bondDraggedAlong

Bond in hand is visible (true) or not (false). This option can also be set on the Edit/Preferences/MarvinSketch panel.

true

customizationEnabled

Specifies whether an end-user can customize the user interface. Setting this parameter to false disables the View/Customize dialog and the View/Configurations menu.

true

dispQuality

Display quality.

  • 0 - low quality, faster rendering

  • 1 - high quality (antialiasing), slower rendering

1

elements

Comma-separated list of allowed elements (H, He, Li, ...). All elements in an atomic number interval can be specified with the short X-Y notation.
Example: "B-F,P-Cl". Here B-F is equivalent to B,C,N,O,F.

H-Ha

extraBonds

Comma-separated list of extra bond types.
By default (if extraBonds parameter is not set) all the bond types are displayed.
To switch off all the bonds except the defaults (Single, Double, Triple) user has to set the extraBonds parameter to an empty String.
In any other cases, all the bond types to be displayed have to be listed in the extraBonds parameter besides the default bond types.

  • bold_single - Bold single bond

  • arom - Aromatic bond

  • any - Any bond

  • 1or2 - "Single or Double" query bond

  • aromany - "Single or Aromatic" and "Double or Aromatic" query bond types

  • topology - "Chain" and "Ring" bonds (in molfiles)

  • wedge - Up and Down stereo wedge bonds

  • either - "Up or Down" and "Cis or Trans"

  • ctu - "Cis or Unspecified" and "Trans or Unspecified"

  • coordinate - Coordinate bond

Example: "arom,wedge".

#ffffff

moreEnabled

Enable/disable the Periodic System also called More button.

true

queryAtoms

Comma-separated list of query atoms and properties.

  • any - any atom ("A" in molfile, "*" in SMARTS),

  • arom - aliphatic and aromatic, ("a" and "A" in SMARTS),

  • conn - total number of connections, ("X" in SMARTS),

  • H - total number of hydrogens, ("H" in SMARTS),

  • hetero - heteroatom ("Q" in molfile, "[!C!H]" in SMARTS),

  • list - atom list,

  • notlist - atom 'NOT' list,

  • Rgroup - Rgroups,

  • rings - "R" in SMARTS,

  • srs - smallest ring size, "r" in SMARTS,

  • val - valence, "v" in SMARTS,

Example: "list,notlist".

tmpls0
tmpls1
tmpls2
...

The format of this parameter is :name:file, where name is the template set name, file is the sdf or cssdf file containing the template structures.
The file can be optionally compressed with GZIP (Java >= 1.1). A template molecule is automatically converted to 2D if the mol2dcmd field contains one of the following values:

  • z=0 - for trivial conversion,

  • clean - for sophisticated 2D cleaning.

For automatic 3D conversion, the value of the mol3dcmd field must be

  • clean - for sophisticated 3D cleaning.

Templates may have abbreviations if the abbreviation fields are specified.

ttmpls0
ttmpls1
ttmpls2
...
