Groups Located
Previous  Top  Next

Dialog Box - called from: Transform Menu

This dialog appears after you have located one or more groups with the Locate Groups dialog.

If you click on the Done button, the last and other groups can be displayed in various ways according to the radio buttons;

---Highlight the last group - really means dim all atoms not in this group.
---Hide all except the last group - atoms not in the last group selected will be marked as non-plotting.
---Hide all except groups - atoms not in any group will be marked as non-plotting.

Highlighting and hiding can be reversed with buttons in the Generated Atoms Data dialog which appears when you click on an atom.

The Show All button allows restoration of any non-plotting atoms. In pre-V5.1 ATOMS this would undo the process of group location, but now the atoms in groups are individually marked with the group number.

The Add button allows locating an additional group (back to the Locate Groups dialog).

The Convert button converts generated to input atoms in exactly the same as in the Generated to Input command in the Transform menu. Note that this option now can convert molecules directly to independent structure fragments.

See the Locate Groups dialog for step-by-step instructions on locating groups, and Dealing with Molecules, Groups and Fragments for general aspects of handling groups.
