New Applets



textViewer Select molecules from a menu to see the results of the molecular orbital computation for the given geometry as specified in the pdb files.
structViewer Select molecules to see the ball and stick model. You can rotate along the x,y,and z axes as well as zoom in and out on the view.
orbitalViewer Select molecules to see the representation of the computed orbitals in an energy level diagram. Use the energy level diagram to select orbitals for viewing a graphical representation as a slice through the origin. You can see either the orbital, density or glue representation.
chemViewer Combines structViewer and orbitalViewer to demonstrate multiple views of a single molecule.

The following applets demonstrate different ways of using the SpaceCrafter class libraries for displaying a ball and stick representation of a molecule. This is promising as a means to simulaneously display a surface representation of a molecular orbital, total electronic density, blue glue, et cetera using the same rendering scheme as that for the molecular geometry.


Using circles Uses Decal3D class to portray each atom. This method allows for easy customization by swapping transparent gif images for each element in the periodic table.
Wireframe model Uses a wireframe representation of the molecule. Each atom is a sphere and each bond is a line. Spheres are colored based on element type, and sized based on covalent atomic radius.
Solid model Uses a solid representation for each sphere instead of a wireframe.
