Jmol 14.4.0 2015.10.22

Jmol is a Windows utility built specifically for helping you analyze chemical information in a 3D working environment. This is a Java-based application, so before installing the application you should make sure you have the environment installed on the computer.

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry. You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to study chemical information on the breeze.

Jmol sports a clean and straightforward layout that gives users the possibility to upload files with the following formats: ADF, MDL, PDB, CIF, or XYZ.

The application enables users to zoom in or out, move and rotate the selected object to different angles, select a group of atoms, measure the distance between atoms, enable the animation mode, create a list with atoms and modify their properties in terms of FPS, scale, amplitude, radius, and vibration, as well as undo or redo actions.

There are several configuration settings designed to help you pick a default atom size, specify the bonding distance, bond radius and tolerance, use a built-in script editor, as well as check a console for errors and history details.

The generated information can be printed, copied to the Clipboard, or exported it to JPG, PNG, or PPM.

All things considered, Jmol comes packed with limited features for helping you analyze chemical data in a 3D environment. Although it cannot be considered as top product from its category, the tool does what it says and is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.
