Molby1.0b3 Revision 581

Molby is an advanced piece of software designed for creating and viewing complex 3D molecular models.

Basic interface

Although Molby may look simple and rudimentary, the application can perform advanced functions and calculations in order to make the process of creating virtual molecule models much easier.After you create a molecular model, you will be able to control it directly from the preview panel, by scaling, dragging, erasing or adding atoms.The preview panel allows you to easily view the molecule from any side in an interactive way, either in line display or as a ball and stick representation.

Compatibility with other programs

In order to continue your complex projects started by using various other applications, you can import molecular structure data from programs like Gaussian, GAMESS; NAMD or SHELX.The export function works in the same way, allowing you to open your Molby projects with various other programs.

Easily create advanced structures

Although the functions of the program are quite complex and specifically directed to chemists, Molby can be easily used by almost anyone with a minimum of molecular Chemistry knowledge.You can add Hydrogen molecules to your virtual 3D model or you can create new bonds or angles in order to obtain complex molecular structures.With Molby, you have the options to quickly copy and paste molecular structures, in order to save time and avoid doing routine work.

Insightful property table

For a much more precise overview of your project, you can access the property table next to the preview panel, which will allow you to find in-depth information about the molecular structure.The data in the property table can be edited, allowing you to modify the properties of each atom, namely its element, type, coordinates, name or partial charge.

Complex molecular structure modeling

To summarize, Molby is an advanced and complex tool created for building and editing 3D models of molecules with ease. Its intuitive and simple interface, and also the compatibility with a multitude of other Chemistry programs make Molby an efficient and easy to use application for molecular 3D modeling.
