Manipulation


 

MOLDRAW allows a variety of structure manipulations, like defining, moving, rotating and deleting molecular fragments or clipping the structure along the Z-axis or cutting the structure along different geometrical patterns (planes, circle, sphere). Single atoms or groups of atoms can also be deleted either by clicking Del Atom on the toolbar and then picking the atoms to be deleted or by the menu (Edit--->Delete atoms type...) to delete all atoms with the same atomic number.

 

At the moment no undo is allowed so that it is better to save the structure before starting a destructive manipulation (File--->Write mol file with coonectivity...) or hiding atoms (see the Viewing option for details).
