reset the graphics properties of selected atoms.
« on: January 5, 2017, 17:33 »
I am observing that using Quick Optimizer is resetting graphics properties of selected atoms. Inside Builder I change the color of a select atom but when I perform quick optimization the color changes back. Is this a bug?

A similar bugfix was listed for 2015 version.
Using the Move Tool would reset the graphics properties of selected atoms.

Thanks
Amit

Yes, this is a bug, but unfortunately a hard one to get rid of. I suggest you use a different approach: In the Builder, use "tagging" to mark the atom(s) that you want colored (Selectrion Tools -> Tags). Select the atom(s) you want colored, add a tag to that selection, run the QuickOptimizer, and then re-select the atoms using the tag. Then you can color the atom(s) from the properties menu.
