Olex2 is visualisation software for small-molecule crystallography developed at Durham University/EPSRC. It provides comprehensive tools for crystallographic model manipulation for the end user and an extensible development framework for programmers. The project has been supported by Olexsys Ltd since 2010.

Features

  • Stereo visualisation
  • Full history of the structure - from solution - to the refinement
  • Structure analysis - pi-pi and other interactions, easy s.u. (esd) on many geometrical parameters calculation
  • Own olex2.refine structure refinement module
  • Seamless integration with Shelxl - switch between Shelxl and olex2.refine in no time
  • Integration with Platon software - every knowledge Platon has is unlocked
  • Multi-platform Windows-Linux-Mac (thanks to wxWidgets)
  • Superflip GUI, ShelXT, Sir and other structure solution programs at the push of the button
  • Postscript and bitmap (jpg, png etc) output to high resolution
  • Advanced tools for disorder modelling using rigid body refinemet
  • Structure reports (and CIF) - by managing metadata are always up to date even after a new structure solution!
  • Electron density maps (and they are live for contour maps)
  • Numerous drawing styles, including a few of predefined
  • Customisable main Menu and the GUI toolbar
  • Embedded Python and macro binding to the command line or interface elements
