Shortcut behaviour

There is a shortcut for brackets (Shift-T). But it would be much more useful with a change - there are 8 different types of bracket and the shortcuts sets the tool to the last used one (I think). I suggest a better behaviour would be to change to ...

ChemDraw and ChemOffice+ use AppTranslocation on macOS even when installed in /Applications

As normal on macOS, I have copied the 2 applications (ChemDraw and ChemOffice+) from the disk image to the /Applications folder.(1) I also use LittleSnitch to authorize network traffic manually. LittleSnitch informed me that both applications actu...

Opening cif files

Thought I'd suggest this one again ;) Sorry if it is already on the 'to do' list. Now that ChemDraw can display molecules in 3D it would be nice to be able to open cif files for more accurate 3D data

Change element colour defaults

Would it be useful to allow to different element colour standards? There is the color by element option in the >color< menu but it has only one standard. Could we have choice over whether they were CPK, Rasmol, PyMol, Jmol or even custom set?

Assign colour to object

It might be useful to be able to assign colours to objects (say in the drawing preferences). e.g. everytime you add a curly arrow it is blue or all p orbitals are red. This would avoid having to select every arrow in a document and in every docume...

Alignment and Magnification

Sometimes it is necessary to align objects or text - I'm sure I'll add my annual comment about text and baseline alignment at some point ;) - manually (select object and use arrow keys). If you attempt this when the page is magnified and an object...

3D structure irregularity for Fe-ligands

I tried out the new feature by applying (j,j) Cp-ligand and (J,J) Pi-benzene ligand on a 'Fe' atom. Interestingly when I applied the 3D Clean Up feature onto the molecules the Fe-Cp-ligand showed an irregular Cp arrangement. When a 90-degree turn ...

Amino acids 2

Can we add a function to customise/ add-in unnatural amino acids into ChemDraw? Currently the template feature exists to add in customised structures. It would be useful if users can type in 'Fmoc-XX-OH' and ChemDraw will be able to recognise that...

Amino acid structure expand

I work in a peptide lab so the accessibility to type out 'Fmoc-Cys(Trt)-OH' and 'expand structure' or 'convert name to structure' has been very helpful (picture 1). However, I've noticed that users cannot draw out orthogonally protected dipeptpide...
