Geometry Window

Figure 5.11. Geometry Window

The geometry window can be used to explicitly set the distance, angle, or torsion of a group of selected atoms. Exactly two, three, or four atoms must be selected for the individual panels to be available. The atoms need not be connected with bonds. The panels on this window are also used when setting geometry from the atom context menu.

Each page is essentially the same, displaying the atom IDs which make up the current target geometry. The new value of the geometry can be set explicitly, or increased/decreased by 'nudging' the current value by a specified amount.

	Add a specified amount to the current value
	Subtract a specified amount from the current value
