1. The last command in the following script crashes Jmol 12.2.5: load =1al1 load append =1pgb zoom 25 set axes on select 1.1 color red select 2.1 color yellow frame all spin selected The following message appears in the java console: spinFPS is set too fast (30.0) -- can't keep up! So I inserted set spinfps 10 before the "spin selected" command. Now the "too fast" message does not appear (and spinning is less smooth) but Jmol still hangs. 2. Is it possible to have two models spin independently, concurrently, each about its own geometric center, and about the vertical axis passing through its center? If yes, I would appreciate some help. Thanks, -Eric |

That's a really weird command to give, Eric! You are allowing the user to rotate the model and have it change its coordinates always around the Y axis? Yow! It's not a crash, Jmol is just processing that spin command. Using !quit works to stop it. That's the same with all spin/rotate SELECTED commands. You can't make them go indefinitely and just continue on. You aren't supposed to be able to just spin a selected group indefinitely. Yeiks! Imagine what would happen if you started moving atoms while Jmol was moving atoms! I'm not ready to say this is possible. You can request it as a feature, but there will be lots of important issues to solve before that ever becomes possible. I think there could be serious threading issues.

OK, sorry. I'm not proposing a new feature. Bob, you have brought about such amazing advances in Jmol that I've quite lost a sense of what is feasible and what is not. So that's why I end trying things that strike you as weird. Thanks for the explanation. Eric At 11/17/11, Robert Hanson wrote: >That's a really weird command to give, Eric!
