shifted cube files

Hi Everybody,


I have a problem displaying cube files generated by Gaussian. When I open a cube file MarvinSpace nicely displays the isosurface, the problem is that the isosurface is shifted with respect to the atoms. Has anybody encountered similar problem? Is there any work around?





Cheers,


Arek

Hi Arek,





we have not experienced this behavior yet. If you can send us an example, we will try to fix it.





Kind regards,

Judit,





Please find the cube file and screenshots attached to this email. The cube file holds a pi type MO of an adenine nucleobase, as you can see on the screenshots, (file 130b.png shows a side view and 130a.png a top view of the same orbital), the whole MO is vertically shifted with respect to the plane of the base. However, the atoms should be on the node plane of the MO, and that is the case when I display the same cube file using VMD, chimera, or molekel. Thanks for your help. I hope there is a workaround, because I really like MarvinSpace.





Best regards,

The further development of Marvinspace has very low priority at the moment. This, however, does not mean that the feature you proposed is not considered to be an important one. At present we do not have enough capacity to do this work.





Thank you for your understanding,
