A Quick Guide to Building Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in SAMSON

For molecular modelers working with carbon nanostructures, creating accurate models of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be a time-consuming task—especially when aiming to simulate or analyze multi-walled configurations. Whether you’re preparing for a simulation, visualizing a nanostructure for publication, or testing…

Why Molecular Modelers Should Care About Versioning

When working on molecular models across different projects, teams, or institutions, it’s easy to lose track of the evolution of files, features, and visual results. A common pain shared by molecular modelers is wondering which version of a model was…

Visualizing Molecular Transformations with a Smooth Fade

When creating scientific animations, small choices in transitions can make a big difference in how clearly your message is received. In molecular design, showing the evolution of a system often requires highlighting some parts of the structure while reducing the…

Clarifying Complex Motion with the Rotate Animation in SAMSON

When working with molecular models, visualizing movements is often crucial to understanding molecular function. Whether you’re studying conformational changes, ligand docking pathways, or simply presenting your simulation results, clear and intuitive animations can help tell a more compelling story —…

Saving Consistent Molecular Captures Without the Manual Hassle

Consistent and high-quality molecular captures are crucial for presentations, publications, and team communication. But getting a clean, reproducible image from a molecular modeling platform typically requires a mix of screen captures, manual cropping, and editing. This can waste time and…
