Hello,


I have a problem when I draw structures and add groups. The group addapts some automatic orientation that I cannot change. Is there an option to change the orientation of the group (flush left/right as in chemdraw)? Specifically, in the attached example, I would like the COOMe group to point to the right, so it does not overlap with the neighboring Me group. (I have MarvinSketch 5.8.3)


Thanks,


Matthew

Dear Matthew,


Currently is not easy to change the oriantetion of the group, however, it can be done:


1. Step : Select the group on canvas


2. right click > add to my templates


3. a small icon signing the template will appear at the bottom of the canvas next to the different ring templates


4. Right click on the template > Properties


5. Flip abbreviation to avoid text overlapping on canvas. In this case : COOMe


6. Substitute the new template for the original one.


Best Regards,
