Re: [Jmol-users] synchronisation of two but not all applets

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

When an applet has sync on, then it receives messages from any other applet
on its synchronization set. By default, this set is all the applets on its
page. But you can be more specific than that by using

jmolSetSyncId(n)

where n is some number. So set n to one number just before the jmolApplet()
command for the two applets you want synchronized and set it to another
number for the other two.
It is important to have a random number here -- don't just use 1 and 2, or
if the user loads the same page twice, all the applets with the same number
(even if on different pages!) will be synchronized. I recommend using set
syncmouse true;set syncscript false if all you want to do is make sure the
rotation is kept the same. Thus:

 <script src="jmol/Jmol.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<script type="text/javascript">
         jmolInitialize("jmol");
          jmolSetAppletColor("white");

jmolSetSyncId(Math.random())

          jmolApplet(400, "script jmolscripts/0.jmol", "0");
</script>

<script src="jmol/Jmol.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<script type="text/javascript">
         jmolInitialize("jmol");
          jmolSetAppletColor("white");


          jmolApplet(400, 'script jmolscripts/0a.jmol;sync * on;sync * "set
syncMouse on;set syncScript off";' , "1a");
</script>

<script src="jmol/Jmol.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<script type="text/javascript">
         jmolInitialize("jmol");
          jmolSetAppletColor("white");

jmolSetSyncId(Math.random())

          jmolApplet(400, "script jmolscripts/1.jmol", "1");
</script>

<script src="jmol/Jmol.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<script type="text/javascript">
         jmolInitialize("jmol");
          jmolSetAppletColor("white");


          jmolApplet(400, 'script jmolscripts/1a.jmol;sync * on;sync * "set
syncMouse on;set syncScript off";' , "1a");
</script>
