When working on molecular modeling projects, precise positioning of atoms, fragments, and molecular assemblies isn’t just helpful—it’s critical. Whether you’re preparing a simulation, visualizing structures, or creating educational animations, having solid control over how you manipulate objects in 3D space…

When modeling molecular systems, predicting how a molecule transitions from one conformation to another—especially through complex pathways like ligand unbinding—is a frequent challenge. While generating an initial path using interpolation or sampling is a good start, these paths are rarely…

Molecular modelers often need to closely inspect the transitions and conformational changes in molecular systems. While forward animations help reveal how a molecule evolves over time, there is often as much insight to be gained by watching it happen in…

Molecular modelers often face the challenge of visual clutter when presenting large or intricate systems. Whether you’re creating visualizations for publications, tutorials, or presentations, overlapping atoms or structures can obscure the message you’re trying to convey. A critical—and often overlooked—solution…

When you’re modeling large molecular systems—dense proteins, layered assemblies, or binding site environments—it’s easy to feel like you’re navigating a fog. Important details get buried under overlapping atoms, useful parts are occluded, and your camera feels like it’s fighting against…

Creating animations that clearly illustrate molecular transformations is often a challenge for modelers and presenters alike. Many platforms require scripting or coding, which can be a steep barrier for users who are more focused on their scientific models than on…

When working on molecular systems, it's common to need to inspect or adjust properties of atoms, residues, or other entities—often not just one by one, but in groups. Whether you’re refining a simulation input, validating a structure, or preparing a…

When working in molecular modeling, quickly grasping the identity or role of individual elements—atoms, chains, ligands, or other entities—is essential. Yet, it’s surprisingly easy to get lost in a sea of similar shades when visualizing complex systems, especially when you’re…

When working with complex molecular systems, visual communication becomes key—especially when creating presentations or recording animations for colleagues or publications. A common need for molecular modelers is to pan the view horizontally without altering the orientation or zoom level of…
