  structure with aromatic bonds), the non-converted part is displayed in
  its original form (with aromatic bonds) even if the "Aromatic Bonds as
  Discrete Double Bonds" display option is set to True. The structure
  rendering displayed an exception in these cases in the past.


• The installer places an executable (EnableJCXLAddins) in the
  Program Files folder that runs a PowerShell script after a remote
  install to enable the JChem for Excel fiunctions.

JChem for Office 15.1.500 has been released

Improvements

• The 'Align hits as query' option is checked in by default during R-group decomposition.

Bug Fixes

• In the 64-bit version of JChem for Excel, if the Region of Windows
  was set to Hungarian, excel cells containing imported/generated
  structures picked up a custom 'gene/r/al' format instead of using the
  standard 'General' format. This caused issues when inserting a new cell
  to the right or to the bottom of the given structure cell, because Excel
  automatically gives the same formatting to the new cell, which mixed up
  the display of e.g. numbers in these new cells.


• After editing a JChem for Excel structure that was imported from a
  lower level file format (e.g. SMILES) and adding higher level features
  (e.g. adding a query property to an atom), the structure did not change,
  because JChem for Excel tried to keep the original format. Now in these
  cases the format is automatically upgraded to the corresponding higher
  level format (in case of MarvinSketch to MRV).

JChem for Office 15.1.1200 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.1.12 used.

Improvements

• The "Bond Lengths" structure display option that controls the
  display of the bond lengths at each bond has been renamed to "Bond
  Lengths Visible".


• The "Atom Symbols Visible" structure display option that enables to
  see the atom labels in 3D structures has been renamed to "Atom Symbols
  Visible in 3D".

JChem for Office 15.1.1900 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.1.19 used.

Improvements

• The Stereochemistry option in the Basic Search Options on the
  Filtering dialog is changed from True/False values to
  Stereospecific/Exact/Ignore/Diastereomer/Enantiomer values to better
  reflect the options available in JChemBase. At the same time, the Exact
  Stereo Matching option has been removed from the Chemistry Search
  Options, because it is not needed anymore; the Stereochemistry=Exact
  option has to be used instead (e.g. in case of Duplicate search).

Bug Fixes

• Characters that were available on a specific language keyboard only
  by combination with the AltGr key (e.g. backslash on the German or
  Hungarian keyboard) could not be typed in dialogs opened from
  MarvinSketch.NET (the default editor in JChem for Office).

JChem for Office 15.1.2600 has been released

Improvements

• The Stereochemistry option on the Filter and Import from Database
  dialogs is changed automatically to "Exact" if the Search Type is set to
  "Duplicate", and to "Stereospecific" in any other Search Type (but can
  be changed manually to any other option).

Bug Fixes

• If an Excel sheet had no header row, the structure in the first row was not exported.

JChem for Office 15.2.900 has been released

New feature

• Marvin OLE objects in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook documents can be set
  to be replaced with a normal JChem for Office object upon editing (by
  double-click or using the Edit button).

Improvements

• The Fixed Scale parameter in the JChem for PowerPoint and Word
  Structure Display options (Preferences - Display) now overwrites the
  picture size settings, so if it is set to different from 0, a single
  structure will be created according to that (even in case of editing),
  ensuring that the bond length will be the same in all parts of the
  document. In addition, the aspect ratio of the image is the same as of
  the structure.


• The default setting in JChem for PowerPoint/Word/Outlook is now changed to have no border when adding a new structure.

Bug Fixes

• Importing from databases by ID did not import the structures if in a
  previous import process from the same table a non-structure field was
  set to be used as structure.


• If an excel sheet had only one column, containing structures
  defined by the JCIDSYSStructure formula (including ID info as well), the
  'Structures only' checkbox was selected automatically, and it was not
  possible to unselect, so there was no way to set the ID info to be
  exported.

JChem for Office 15.2.2300 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.2.23 used.

Improvements

• The Clear Structure Filter action has been significantly sped up.


• The pictures created from structures in Excel (e.g. by To Image or
  Save To Share) are linked to the excel cells using the ""Move and Size
  with cells"" option from now on (this option was "Move but don't size
  with cells" before), which caused issues in case of excel data
  filtering.

Deprecated option

• The Copy Rows option has been removed from the Filter Actions,
  since the Clone Rows functionality completely covers the related use
  case.

Bug Fixes

• Hit count information was not removed when pressing Clear Filter or when starting a new filtering process.


• The characters at the end of longer descriptions on the JChem for Office Options dialog were sometimes compressed.

5th of March, 2015: JChem for Office 15.3.200 has been released

JChem for Office 15.3.900 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.3.9 used.

Improvements

• The size of edited Marvin OLE objects has been reduced to less than half.

Bug Fixes

• Structure filtering did not work on excel files containing JC
  STRUCTURE functions including a different argument separator than that
  of the current regional setting. E.g., structure filtering failed on a
  computer having English regional settings if the JCIDSYSSTRUCTURE
  functions used in the file were created on a Hungarian computer (and
  therefore included semicolon separators instead of commas).


• The Ctrl+Shift+N shortcut did not work in MarvinSketch.NET

JChem for Office 15.3.1600 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.3.1600 used.

Bug Fixes

• The "My Data Has Headers" option didn't work properly in some cases during Filter and R-Group decomposition.


• Structure header text disappeared after clear filter if the "My
  data has headers" option was set to false during the filtering process.


• The number of hits was not correct on cloned worksheet after filtering.


• Excel files saved in version 15.1.1900 or before containing a
  filter with non-default stereo search option could not be opened in
  later versions.

JChem for Office 15.3.3000 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.3.30 used.

New features

• The SAR table generation can be run on Markush structures
  containing more than 2 R-groups; the R-group pair used in the SAR table
  is selected from dropdown lists during the process.

Improvements

• Structure filtering speed has been improved significantly: about 5
  time faster in case of the first filtering action in an open Excel
  workbook, and about 10 times faster at any further filtering on the same
  open workbook (regardless the query structure).

Bug Fixes

• The query structure was not retained when initiating a filter
  action after opening a JChem for Excel file that was saved with a
  filtered sheet.

Marvin/JChem 15.4.6 used.

JChem for Office 15.4.1300 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.4.13 used.

Bug Fixes

• Converting a structure to ID (defined with IDSYSSTRUCTURE function)
  resized the row height to the height of the ID text, even if there was
  another cell that required more space.


• If there was no header in the file, but the "My data has header"
  option was left True during the R-group decomposition, the decomposition
  results were shifted one row upward.

JChem for Office 15.4.2000 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.4.20 used.

Marvin/JChem 15.5.25 used.

Bug Fixes

• Selecting a single word in a text box then pushing Ctrl+C copied the whole textbox in PowerPoint.


• Copy/pasting multiple structures to a different workbook, then
  saving the target workbook and reopening it resulted in the loss of
  those structures.

JChem for Office 15.6.100 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.6.1 used.

Improvements

• IKVM, the 3rd party tool that converts the java based code base to
  .NET to create .NET APIs (like JChem.NET) and .NET applications (like
  MarvinSketch.NET) has been upgraded to version 7.4.

Bug Fixes

• Shift+Click was not working in MarvinSketch.NET.


• Save To Share converted only the first 1,000 structures to images in a few environments.

  Word/PowerPoint/Outlook options (to result in unified bond length
  throughout the document), it is applied during the paste of a single
  structure.

Bug Fixes

• Copy/pasting an image from a browser into a PPT slide resulted in a picture that was recognized as a JChem for Office object.

JChem for Office 15.6.1500 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.6.15 used.

Improvements

• All errors detected during a file import in Excel are now collected
  at the end of the import process, and the error report is now
  selectable and can be copied to the clipboard.


• Structure filtering failed in Excel when one structure contained
  features that could not be handled by the JChem substructure search
  (e.g. a Markush structure with polymer features). Now the filtering
  skips these structures, hides them together with the non-hit structures,
  the hit count is properly displayed at the status bar, and the
  problematic structures are reported in an error message at the end of
  the filtering process.

Bug Fixes

• Copying a SMILES from Word and pasting it into the canvas of a
  MarvinSketch.NET window opened from Excel/PowerPoint crashed
  Excel/PowerPoint.


• It was not possible to run License Manager in
  Word/Outlook/PowerPoint, and if it was the first action in Excel, the
  loading of the License Manager crashed Excel.


• If additional text was selected together with a single structure
  object in Word, Ctrl+C recognized it as a single JChem for Office
  object, and therefore Ctrl+V pasted only the structure (the extra text
  was lost).

JChem for Office 15.6.2200 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.6.22 used.

JChem for Office 15.6.2900 has been released

Improvements

• If an Oracle Cartridge view contains cd_structure, structure,
  cd_smiles or smiles column, it is selected automatically (in the above
  order) as target column for structure search on the Query tab and as
  structure column on the Columns tab.

Bug Fixes

• Database import didn't work on Oracle (non cartridge) Views unless
  the Search option was set to "No Structure Search" on the query tab. Now
  the structure search is automatically disabled on non-cartridge Oracle
  Views.


• The Import from Database process displayed "Fetching.." on the Rows
  tab even if there was nothing to import (e.g. there was no any hit
  resulted by the query). Now it properly displays if there is no result.

JChem for Office 15.7.1300 has been released

Bug Fixes

• MarvinSketch.NET did not put the structure format titles to the
  clipboard during Copy and Copy As, therefore JChem for Office could not
  automatically recognize it and convert it to structure object during
  Paste.

JChem for Office 15.7.2000 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.7.20 used.

Bug Fixes

• One-click "Display" action has been introduced in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook as a new ribbon button functionality, which reflects the Structure Display settings specified in Options. The action works on a selected single structure.


• One-click solution is introduced for combined "Display and Scale" ribbon functionality in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook, which reflects both changes at the same time, working the same way on a single selected structure.

Improvements

• The molecule object in a Word/PowerPoint/Outlook document keeps the structure display settings after modifying the structure in MSketch.


• When editing a structure object in Excel/Word/PowerPoint/Outlook the structure is displayed with the same display settings in MSketch as it is displayed in MS Office.

JChem for Office 15.8.1700 has been released

Improvements

• The JChem for Office object in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook keeps the
  image size or scale after editing the structure: If the FixedScale
  parameter is different from 0, then the scale is kept, otherwise the
  image size.


• Import from File/DB results in a single table in Word/Outlook by
  default, with repeating the first row of the table as header at each
  page in Word.

Bug Fixes

• Rendering of structures in Excel slowed down in version 15.6.8, but has been sped up again.


• If there was no JChem for Office action initiated during an MS Word session, the closing of MS Word took too much time.

JChem for Office 15.9.1400 has been released

Improvements

• Vague Bond Level 0 and Half are added to the Chemistry Search
  Options applied during Import or Filtering, and Level Half is the new
  default value.

Bug Fixes

• After a file or database import in Word the structure images were oversized, and did not fit into the column in some cases.


• The format of the molweight column imported from a JChem table
  during JChem Web Services was considered as integer instead of float.

JChem for Office 15.9.2100 has been released

Marvin/JChem 15.9.21 used.

New features

• The scale of the pasted structure in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook will
  now reflect the zoom factor used in MarvinSketch during the Copy action.

Improvements

• The Structure Display settings stored in the Word/PPT/Outlook/Excel
  Options is passed to MarvinSketch when adding a new molecule (so the
  structure looks the same during the creation as it will be displayed
  after drawing it).

JChem for Office 15.9.2800 has been released

 Marvin/JChem 15.9.28 used.

Bug Fixes

• After pressing "Display" button the structure will not shrink and will keep the size of the outer object if the document was created without scale information.


• "Scale" button now resizes the image according the size defined in Image Formatting options, previously it was resized always to 200x200.

JChem for Office 15.10.1200 has been released

Improvements

• The Implicit Hydrogen and the R/S Stereo Labels display options are
  now loaded into MarvinSketch both from the structure objects (in case
  of Editing a structure in Word/PowerPoint/Outlook) and from the local
  JChem options (when Adding a new structure in
  Excel/Word/PowerPoint/Outlook).


• Closing a MarvinSketch window opened by any of the actions of JChem
  for Office (e.g. Add, Edit, Filter, etc.) will not update the
  marvin.properties files anymore, so changing the Display Settings in a
  such a MarvinSketch window will not affect the desktop MarvinSketch or
  other MarvinSketch windows in 3rd party applications.

Bug Fixes

• If a structure was selected at the time of pasting another
  structure in Word, PowerPoint, or Outlook copied from another
  application (e.g. MarvinSketch or Excel), the original structure was
  deleted.


• If a structure object was resized in PowerPoint by selecting only
  the internal image, after editing the structure it was resized to its
  original size or scale.


• It was not possible to insert a structure into a Word table using the Add feature.


• Trying to apply the Display and/or Scale settings on an image
  (containing no structure info) copied from Windows Explorer to
  PowerPoint displayed an incorrect warning message.

• The current sheet is set to be the default for Import from File
  even if there is data on that sheet, positioning the import to start at
  the first empty line. Another sheet or a new sheet can still be selected
  during the import of course.

Bug Fixes

• When only the CD_ID and CD_STRUCTURE columns were selected during
  an import from an Oracle DB using JChem Cartridge search, then nothing
  was imported.

Free Webinar: Office in small biotech's workflow

Dear all,

We will have a webinar today (4th November) from 4 pm CET (10 am ET) about small biotech workflow covering mostly Instant JChem and JChem for Office capabilities. Some talk - but even more demo.

If you have time and would love to join: Register here

Abstract: 

Designed for SMEs ChemAxon’s MiniReg offers a straightforward solution to create and explore chemical databases containing biochemical assay results. Embedded in our Instant JChem it provides versatile solutions for chemical informatics related tasks such as substructure, similarity and complex query building, property calculations and basic mathematical functions. The clean custom interface that can be designed within the form view builder, provides improved user experience and a clearer way of data representation.

In order to make the transition from a cheminformatics platform to more general office tasks we are introducing you the revitalised JChem for Office application. Extending spreadsheets, documents and powerpoint presentations with chemical intelligence contributes to solving regular work-flows with higher efficiency and precision within the MS Office environment.

The goal of the webinar is to propose light-weight and end-to-end solutions from registration through analysis and reporting.

Hope to see you there

Dear Users,

We plan to remove the option from JChem for Office that enables to insert the chemical structures as OLE objects (instead of the default JChem for Office objects) into documents, and keep them in OLE during the editing. Using OLE objects will still be possible when JChem for Office is not installed.

Please contact us if you use your JChem for Office this way.

Thank you.
