Re: [Jmol-users] monitor behavior DOCUMENTATION

[Bob H. <ha...@st...>]

I can imagine that if you have restricted sets or otherwise "turned off atoms" 
and there are lots of them (such as the way Eric has mentioned turning off 
different models) the user could be in for a surprise if they run a monitor to 
an atom that isn't there. But if this is only activated by the monitor command 
itself, and not by user clicking, then it should be fine to be able to do it.

Imagine you have several models and you want to compare similar distances. 
Shouldn't you just be able to turn on and off display of the models and have the 
monitors go on and off with them? Or do the monitors stay, even though the model 
is not visible?
