Chemical structures made with this program are designed to be compatible with a paper surface rather than to compete with 3D models.

Chemical structures made with this program are designed to be compatible with a paper surface rather than to compete with 3D models.

Some Features:

?\tA Tab Bar to compartmentalize similar tasks.

?\tA Toolbar for generic tasks

?\tMolecules are saved using Apple’s Core Data (a database style system).

?\tDocument-based: more than one document can be opened at a time. ?

each document contains its own set of molecules (canvas).

?\tA predefined set of functional groups are included.

?\tSaved molecules may be classified into groups for organization

?\tA molecule may be copied from one document and then?

saved in another open document.

?\tA molecule may be flipped horizontally or vertically (as well as rotated)

?\tThe size of the atoms may be increased ( 3 discrete sizes )

?\tUser may copy and paste molecules.

?\tUndo ( command Z ) for most operations.

?\tmultiple bonding representations are available

Note1:

FlatMol 2 is Not: an expert system

Chemical accuracy, proper coordination, and bonding choices are all in the hands of the creator (you !).

Note 2:

FlatMol 2 is Not: a molecule naming program

A link to NIST formula search can be found in the save molecule window.

(US National Institute of Standards and Technology). It is an excellent source of information.

FlatMol 2更新说明：

New Feature per user suggestion, Thanks Mark !
Circles around the Atoms may now be turned off; during run-time using a button; default setting available in Preferences.
