[Jmol-users] isosurfaces and the new translucency

[Frieda R. <fr...@ns...>]

I'm enjoying the beauty of the new translucency with surfaces. But I  
find that In Jmol 11.1.21, using the command

isosurface mysurface translucent on

the 'on' throws an error - invalid argument. Probably wants a number  
for translucency, right?

But, in Jmol 11.1.18, the 'on' is required to show a surface (loaded  
mysurface with a jvxl file) -- if I leave off the 'on' the command is  
ineffective - no surface appears. So maybe a backward compatibility  
issue?

The inconsistency between Jmol versions is the same using:

isosurface mysurface opaque on
