This is supplied in Adobe PDF format, for easy searching - and includes page thumbnails for quick browsing. Online Help provides a quick reference to the interface and capabilities - and for the definitive reference, we include a highly-detailed and profusely-illustrated 160-page User's Guide. Using CrystalMaker is easy - but to get you up-to-speed as quickly as possible, we include a handy tutorial, designed to familiarize yourself with the essential program features. Crystallography without the pain! Crystal Engineering Unlike traditional software, CrystalMaker features an elegant, easy-to-use interface, with common choices available as presets. You can also project the unit cell onto a chosen lattice plane, to create a "surface cell". TransformationĬrystalMaker lets you transform the unit cell, changing the lattice type, building a supercell, moving the origin, or applying an arbitrary matrix transformation. Calculate angles between planes and/or vectors. Measure distances, angles, torsion angles on screen. Preview coordination environments, clusters and shells visualize bond distances and histograms on screen or save to disc. Mac users can take advantage of multi-touch rotation and scaling with a trackpad, or use simple hand gestures in space, using a Leap Motion Controller.ĬrystalMaker allows continuous plot range settings for millions of atoms, bonds and polyhedra. View parallel to a vector or plane normal. Outstanding 3D GraphicsĬlick-and-drag with the mouse, use the keyboard, or toolbar. Take advantage of our unique "Depth Profiling" tool, to rapidly scan ares of interest in massive structures - ideal for characterizing the results from computer models.Ī range of output options is available for sharing data with other programs, saving structural data, bond distances, coordination environments - or even building web pages with your data. You can work with virtually unlimited numbers of atoms. Load structural data from 25+ formats, including Cambridge Structures Database, Protein Data Bank, CIF, GSAS, SHELX, TOPAS, DL_POLY, VASP, etc.
Each model type can be extensively customized, with the option of photo-realistic graphics or simpler, line-art display. Use the new Relax command to minimize energy and optimize your structure.ĬrystalMaker provides a wide range of model types, including traditional "ball-and-stick", space-filling, polyhedral, wireframe and thermal ellipsoids. Molecule building is even easier: point-and-click to add atoms and bonds. Built-in symmetry handling and the elegant spacegroup browser takes the slog out of crystallography, and the program will automatically generate all your bonds and polyhedra. With CrystalMaker you can build any kind of crystal or molecular structure - quickly and easily.
