Quickly Align Molecules with the Global Reference Frame in SAMSON

When building, comparing, or preparing molecular models for visualization or simulation, one common issue faced by modelers is the orientation and relative positioning of molecular structures. Misaligned molecules can complicate analysis, generate cluttered views, and obstruct accurate measurements or transformations.…

A simple way to control what you see in your molecular model

When working with complex molecular systems, visualization quickly becomes one of the biggest challenges. With hundreds or thousands of nodes representing atoms, molecules, and structures, how can you isolate what truly matters? The Node Specification Language (NSL) in SAMSON offers…

Bring Molecules to Life with Camera Animations in SAMSON

If you’ve ever tried to present complex molecular structures or chemical processes in a clear and engaging way, you probably know how difficult it can be to explain spatial relationships or dynamic transformations with just static images. Whether you’re preparing…

Why Your SAMSON Extension Might Not Load (and How to Fix It)

Molecular modelers who extend SAMSON with custom tools and scripts often face a frustrating situation: an extension that worked yesterday suddenly refuses to load after an update. This issue typically stems from version incompatibilities between SAMSON and the Software Development…
