Re: [Jmol-developers] How do I control Jmol from an external application?

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

Atom has these public properties inherited from Point3fi:

  public int screenX;
  public int screenY;
  public int screenZ;

and you can get the atoms using

    Atom[] atoms = viewer.getModelSet().atoms;

because those are all public methods.

Does that do it for you?

If nature does not answer first what we want,
it is better to take what answer we get.
