Excellent app but a bit limited for complex molecules (e.g. my favourite, 1PZN). I normally use MacPyMol and prefer the cartoon mode for visualization, any chance you could implement this? Also, the ability to change the colouring would be really appreciated, especially Chainbows (again, for large complex molecules).

Thanks

This is a popular request (as shown here and here), but it's a little more complex to code up than the ball-and-stick model form.

I've been a little distracted by other things for the last few months, but I'm just now getting back into working on this project. I will first try to improve the rendering speed of the current visualization modes, then attempt to tackle this, but it could be a little while before I have this kind of visualization ready to go.
