When working with complex molecular systems, showcasing your model from the right perspective can make a world of difference. Whether you’re preparing a presentation, creating an educational video, or simply analyzing a structure for yourself, smooth and controlled camera motion…

Every molecular modeler has been there: after hours of careful edits, one wrong click sends your molecular system into disarray. Accidentally deleting a molecule, misplacing an atom, or erasing a key interaction can be frustrating—especially when you can’t remember exactly…

Protein-ligand docking is only half the story. Once a docking run completes successfully, understanding how your ligand interacts with the receptor is critical — not only to validate the result, but also to extract meaningful insights. That’s where visual analysis…

One of the most time-consuming tasks in molecular modeling is selecting specific atoms according to their properties. Whether you’re preparing a simulation, cleaning up a structure, or visualizing a region of interest, selecting the right atoms quickly and precisely is…

In molecular modeling and communication, clarity is critical. Whether you’re preparing a presentation for colleagues or publishing a video abstract, showing a complex molecular structure all at once can be overwhelming for your audience. Often, you want to guide the…

A common challenge for molecular modelers when creating visual narratives or science presentations is controlling exactly when molecular structures appear in an animation. Whether you’re showcasing a complex assembly process, a ligand binding sequence, or a molecular revelation, precise timing…

Animations can be a remarkably effective way to communicate complex molecular mechanisms, structural changes, or simulation data — especially in presentations or publications. But for many molecular modelers, creating animations still sounds like a time-consuming or technically difficult task. If…

If you’ve ever tried to move a group of atoms in your molecular model, only to realize that they’re no longer in the same geometric arrangement, you’re not alone. Many molecular modelers face this issue when managing atomic coordinates for…

Anyone who has worked with complex molecular systems knows that managing atomic structures, ligands, simulations, and annotations can quickly become overwhelming. As molecular modelers, we often lose precious time searching for that one piece of structural data buried deep in…
