I am not using ChemDraw very often. Most of the time I just draw a few structures and reaction pathways for my protocols or create worksheets for my tutoring students. Instead of using the help tab I tried to get along with youtube videos. So I de...
This may be quite specific, but nonetheless will be an increasing problem if it is to do with Apple Silicon MacOs Monterey 12.0.1 MacBook Air M1 Apple Silicon Make a chemdraw file with some stuff in it. Save it somewhere and email it (I used one o...
Broken Up-Down overlay order for color highlighted atoms and bonds in 3D Clean Up structures
When 3D Clean Up structure has color highlighted bonds and atoms, during rotation Up-Down order of overlaying them is broken. DISCUSSION: Last year Gareth was rising his concerns about confusion with layers order of Ring Fill coloured structures a...
Incorrect 3D Clean Up for ALL Metallocenes from Metallocenes Template, Page expansion
SEVERITY: HIGH! BRIEF DESCRIPTION: ALL structures from Metallocenes Template are not correctly processed during 3D Clean Up. Sometimes the structure just disappears during 3D Clean Up. Some elements of 3D Clean Up conversion are dispersed in the d...
Just a suggestion: I've heard a few academics gripe that undergrads new to using ChemDraw use the default stylesheet, which some people think is as aesthetically pleasing as eg: the ACS Document 1996 stylesheet. I personally use one made by Paul D...
Bond highlighting is useful but the positioning can be sub-optimal for multiple bonds (see picture - top row). Presumably it is related to the central bond but if the double bond is not centred (left or right setting and not >c< when cursor ...
Trying to follow Pierre's youtube video, the option to copy as 3MF is disabled in my version (21.0.999.2240). I tried this with several 3D optimized structures but this option was always disabled in the menu.
There are many shortcuts for tools ('t' for text, 'j' for benzene ring, etc). But nothing for the tool I probably use the most often - the lassoo tool. Can you add one please? It was there several versions ago and is now gone.
The shortcut for View->Reduce (i.e. shift-command-<) does not work on macOS. It just does nothing. Actually, it should not have the "Shift key" set. System: macOS Catalina v10.15.7, iMac 8GB
This isn't a new 'bug' and it is quite a minor detail but thought it might be worth mentioning. If you 'join' (cmd+j) a group of objects ((cmd+g) say an aromatic ring with non-defined R group overlapping the ring) to another molecule then only par...
