The
Renderer Settings
allow users to predefine default render styles for the 3D Viewer.
Alignment Perspective | Effect |
---|---|
Use blur for focus and context | The check box use Blur toggles between blurring and desaturated coloring of ligands and pharmacophores. (default: disabled) |
center added elements | The check box Center Elements toggles centering of the ligand or of the pharmacophore while adding to the Alignment Panel. If enabled, the original coordinates are destroyed and the molecule or pharmacophore is centered in the origin of the model coordinate frame. This behavior can be undesirable if already aligned elements are added from the Alignment Perspective to another view. If you intend to add these elements back, e.g. to the binding pocket, the original coordinates should be retained and this feature should be turned off. (default: disabled) |
Surface rendering | Effect |
---|---|
Backface culling | Enables/Disables the backface culling. If enabled all parts of a surface not facing the viewer will not be rendered. (default: disabled) |
Front clipping | Enables/Disables the front clipping. If enabled then the surface area closest to the point of view is not rendered. (default: disabled) |
Default Rendering Styles | Effect |
---|---|
Macromolecule View | Defines the default render styles for macromolecule and ligand in the Macromolecule View . (default: macromolecule: ribbon; ligand: stick) |
Active Site View | Defines the default render styles for macromolecule and ligand in the Active Site View . (default: macromolecule: snake; ligand: stick) |
Alignment Perspective | Defines the default render styles for ligands and pharmacophores in the Alignment Perspective . (default: stick) |
The
2D Depiction Settings
allow one to adjust parameters
for the 2D depiction of ligand structures.
