Insert Bond

It would be useful to have the option to insert bonds with fractional bond orders in Marvin Sketch. If this was allowed, molecules such as xenon difluoride with 3-centre-4-electron bonds can be accurately represented.

Is this doable for the next product version?

Hi,

Currently we do not plan to implement fractional bonds. I know that this not the best solution, but you might use a resonance structure instead.

Best regards,

Thanks, I think I'll just wait untill it is considered.
