Hi Dave, Currently there is no way to display multiple bonds. In fact, in many cases Chimera does not figure out or "know" the bond orders, so even if there was a display method the information would not necessarily be right. However, a future goal is for bonds to have associated bond orders (with some attempt to discern the correct ones if they are not specified in the input), which could be shown with bond labels ("1" "2" etc.), and perhaps a subsequent goal would be to use some other visual cue such as multiple lines for multiple bonds.

Is there a way to display multiple bonds so bond types (single, double, triple) can be distinguished?
