Alignment of Chemical Formulas

Mac OS Big Sur v11.6 There is no automatic way to align these formulas (see attaced file). The superscripts and subscripts are treated the same as the atoms, so interfere with the alignments.

Additional Layer commands

Currently ChemDraw only has two layer commands - >Bring to Front< and >Send to Back<. This means an object can be moved to the front or the back only. Most graphics software or presentation software have two additional commands >Bac...

13C NMR Carbons without H's Short

In producing the 13C NMR spectra, it would be ideal if the peaks for the carbons without hydrogens (e.g. quaternary carbons, ketone carbonyls, etc.) would be 20–25% as tall as a normal peak. Chemdraw already produces taller peaks if there is more ...

Moving from carbanion/carbocation to neutral molecule looks wrong

I have used +/- keys on some molecules to create carbocation/carbanion. That orked, even though the presentation is not great. However, reverting to the neutral molecule still shows a CH2 group instead of nothing.

Allow beta-testers to temporarily access SciFinder or Signals

Some features in ChemDraw require the beta-tester to have a login for some services such as SciFinder, Signals etc... I think it would be more efficient if all the beta-testers would have a temporary access to those services without relying on the...

Charge Keys

When using the - and + keys for charges there is unexpected and inconsistent behavior. 1) The C's should not be drawn with the charges because one can add the C with a 'c' key press 2) Negative charges should use the en dash vs. hyphen 3) The = an...

Table Tool

The table tool in Chemdraw has always been very clunky. I would like to see a movie on how this tool could be used more efficiently. I doubt the table feature will ever work as well as those found in Word or Excel; however, I ask why doesn;t it wo...

A nice, consistent way to crash Chem3D

Example. Get the structure of cholesterol in the Chemdraw panel. In Chem3D minimise it, hide non polar H atoms and lone pairs. Structure 1 Copy it, paste it into a new file. In the Chemdraw panel mouse over C-12 and hit 'o' to change it into an ox...

Chem3D makes up its own mind....

I actually use Chem3D! It isnt obvious that you are doing any work on it? It's pretty buggy which is a shame because for a certain level user it could be very useful. Example. Get the structure of cholesterol in the Chemdraw panel. In Chem3D minim...
