Paolo and Claudia have written a cool Javascript Chemical Molecular Editor using the Dojo framework. “It is in constant bugfixing and feature enhancement, but we are proud to announce that a first usable version of this tool is available.” told us Paolo in email. Current features include :
- adding elements ( with automatic elements’ balancement )
- adding bonds ( single, double, triple, wedges, … )
- adding text ( useful for notes, … )
- lot of prepackaged structures ( amino acids, cycles, … )
- selected points rotation
- importing 2D .mol format files
- exporting .png images
- integrated periodic table
Many other features are planned for next release : quick buttons, code refactoring, exporting in .mol, .png format files, and arrows. The interface could be also more user friendly in next release but currently you can simply enjoy it as it. I definitely loved the periodic table of elements with detailed information on every elements, in addition to a small button to add that element to the editor.
