Known Issues & Limitations

This release is a beta release and is intended to gain feedback and interest in the project.

The code currently expects to be editing one 3D molecule per file with one coordinate set. This means:

• Editing a multi-molecule file will only edit the first molecule. Saving will overwrite all records except the first.

• Saving to a 2D format will not necessarily produce correct 2D stereochemistry.

• Several builder features are not implemented, including:

  • Crystal structure builder

  • Carbon Nanotube builder

  • Z-matrix editor (early version committed - needs more work)

• Export graphics will only save the current resolution in the window in bitmap form.
