FlatMol 2
macOS / Education
Chemical structures made with this program are designed to be compatible with a paper surface rather than to compete with 3D models.
Chemical structures made with this program are designed to be compatible with a paper surface rather than to compete with 3D models.
Some Features:
◦A Tab Bar to compartmentalize similar tasks.
◦A Toolbar for generic tasks
◦Molecules are saved using Apple’s Core Data (a database style system).
◦Document-based: more than one document can be opened at a time.
each document contains its own set of molecules (canvas).
◦A predefined set of functional groups are included.
◦Saved molecules may be classified into groups for organization
◦A molecule may be copied from one document and then
saved in another open document.
◦A molecule may be flipped horizontally or vertically (as well as rotated)
◦The size of the atoms may be increased ( 3 discrete sizes )
◦User may copy and paste molecules.
◦Undo ( command Z ) for most operations.
◦multiple bonding representations are available
Note1:
FlatMol 2 is Not: an expert system
Chemical accuracy, proper coordination, and bonding choices are all in the hands of the creator (you !).
Note 2:
FlatMol 2 is Not: a molecule naming program
A link to NIST formula search can be found in the save molecule window.
(US National Institute of Standards and Technology). It is an excellent source of information.
Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
New Feature per user suggestion, Thanks Mark !
Circles around the Atoms may now be turned off; during run-time using a button; default setting available in Preferences.
