===Use light colors on a black background=== | ===Use light colors on a black background=== | ||
Because MP projects in a well lit atrium, generally a black background (which will appear medium gray) works best. Dark colors are hard to see on the black background, so use light colors as much as possible. In particular, Jmol's default [[CPK]] colors for carbon, oxygen and nitrogen are marginally visible. Therefore the support script provided for MP includes a function ''colorAllLightCPK'' that applies lighter colors to these elements. | Because MP projects in a well-lit atrium, generally a black background (which will appear medium gray) works best.
