how to draw smeared charge?

Is there a way to draw smeared charge in MarvinSketch?

e.g. for carboxylic acid anion or amidine cation (as in attached file)?

Dear Ryszard !



To draw a smeared charge in Marvin select the group you want to add

the charge and then use Structure > Add > Multi-center from the menu.

Then, still with the group selected, use Right Click > Charge to add

the smeared charge. Unfortunately dashed lining for the atoms of

the group is not supported directly, but you can have the similar effect

with adding "Single or Aromatic"  bonds to the atoms in the group,

however,  this bond type is a query bond so it is not for that purpose.
