Visualizers Tab
Visualizers tab that applies to Ligands, MacroMolecules, Water and Ions, and sets the following properties:
Parameter |
Description |
Ball radius |
Size of atom spheres in Ball draw type, measured in Angstroms. |
Bond radius |
Size of bond cylinders in Ball and Stick draw type, measured in Angstroms. |
Stick radius |
Size of bond cylinders in Stick draw type, measured in Angstroms. |
Line width |
Width of bonds in wire mode. |
Double bond distance |
Gap between two lines/sticks representing a double bond. It is determined as a percentage of Bond radius. |
Double bond width |
Thickness of line/stick representing a double bond. It is expressed relative to the thickness of a single bond. |
Display bond order |
When checked double bonds are drawn by two line segments, otherwise all bonds are represented as single bonds. |
vdW scaled balls |
When checked atom spheres in Ball and Ball-and-Stick modes are scaled according to their van der Waals radii. Otherwise all atoms (apart from hydrogen) are represented by uniform sphere radii. Hydrogen radius is half of atom radius. |
Smooth colored sticks |
When checked bi-colored stick bonds are colored gradually from one color to the other (in CPK atom coloring mode). Otherwise the two halves are draw with the two different colors. |
