The only thing I would add is that if you are working with a small molecule, you can use the Structure Diagram tool (under Utilities) to draw a 2-D representation of the molecule that includes bond-order depiction. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Jul 21, 2008, at 9:06 AM, Elaine Meng wrote:

Hi Hatuey, There is a search form for the chimera-users archive. Choose "Help... Contact Us" from the Chimera menu to see the page with the search forms (to get results you need to be connected to the Web, of course).

Usually I recommend searching the documentation first (Choose "Help... Search Documentation") because that will give up-to-date information. What you get by searching the mailing list may include some old information that is not helpful or relevant to newer versions of Chimera. The documentation search can take boolean combinations of terms.

Currently, there is no way to differently display single/double/ aromatic bonds, sorry. In this case, you wouldn't find anything in the documentation, but might find this chimera-users message: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimera-users/2006-September/000931.html

Hi all, I have to questions about Chimera:

1st.- Is it possible to search the mailing list to avoid doing questions that were already answered?

2nd.- As I do not know the answer to the first question, I would like to know how I can visualize double and triple bound as well as aromatic rings explicitly within Chimera.

Regards, Hatuey
