Hello,

I studied this a bit more and now I think I have a solution. It seems that
the implementations of the above methods are not yet ok, and some weeks
ago Miguel adviced I could use JmolModelAdapter to find out things about
atoms and bonds. This was the question, but now it's clear.

So I wrote an implementation for getChemModel() and it is in the
attachments (it is a cvs diff file and I hope it's readable). The first
part is for getChemModel() at JmolEditBus.java and the second part is a
minor bugfix for FrameExportModelAdapter.java. The problem in
FrameExportModelAdapter.java was that unique ID's given by AtomIterator
were incompatible to those given by BondIterator (AtomIterator generated
them starting from 1 while BondIterator started from 0).

Using fixes in the attachment I now have successfully read the atom/bond
information that I need at the plugin side using getChemModel() so there
is no problems with the current EditBus.
