The method described below requires a new version of FirstGlance in Jmol scheduled for release on or before June14, 2016. Until that version is released, the method below is not available.

Any molecular scene in Proteopedia (or any Jmol website) can be converted to a rocking or spinning animation for presentations, such as Microsoft Powerpoint, free Google Slides, or free Libre Office. Examples:

  • In Google Slides
  • In Microsoft Powerpoint (in preparation, will have the same content as in Google Slides)

LimitationsLimitations

This method will make a presentation-ready rocking or spinning animation of a fixed molecular scene. See examples linked above. It will not convert complex Jmol animations such as Morphs or those in Molecular Playground/HIV Protease Inhibitor and Molecular Playground/Tamiflu into presentation-ready animations. However, morphs can be made presentation-ready using Polyview-3D. An example is the last slide in this downloadable Powerpoint demonstration of Polyview-3D animations.

MethodMethod

Display the desired molecular scene. Then:

  1. Right click near the top of JSmol to open the JSmol menu. Click on Console.
