Re: [Jmol-users] Jmol in Crystallography

[Carroll, P. J <car...@sa...>]

Bob,

       In your earlier e-mail, you remarked that my server was slow. I assume that is because I always load a full cell (and sometimes more, for packing diagrams). Even for displaying single molecules, I use load "" centroid; display within (molecule, !symmetry) so I can "grow" the molecule if it lies on a symmetry element (e.g., 1274.html). For packing diagrams, I use load {444 666 0} routinely (e.,g., 1462c.html) or even load {333 777 0} (in 1144cell.html). You should see when I try to load a cubic cell with 96 molecules - I can go get a cup of coffee and watch an episode of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians"!

Nice to hear from you, Pat! Ah, yes....PARTS...

That was a nice addition. Thank you for pointing out the need for that and helping me get it right.

I wonder why your server is so slow:

Maybe because it is http and not https?

Are these buttons supposed to do something?

Wait, now I see it. I have to press "add" -- NICE!

Have you played with the new MODELKIT command? See

Wow, this goes on and on!!!

Fantastic. Is there an index?

Going to Calgary? https://www.iucr2026.org/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iucr2026.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!UUgM-_Z6YgqDrkjVuHV0DGUT7a1p9fMAf8SDNmHZpc0fPR5NIRufVqSfQAtu-vZ0YinZ_bxecwI6bHl6ONtyamcdtT80kFxw$>
I'm hoping to make a couple of presentations there.
