dB corruption.

Syoung227 — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 03:40:36 +0000

Program is great first off.

One problem, the dB gets corrupt when shreadit HD is run.

The dB will reinit after its started and user added molecules are gone, however attempts to re enter fail with an error they already exist.

Fix is ugly..... Erase program and reload.

Lost molecules

Franklane2 — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 23:57:03 +0000

I lost about half my molecules list. Not sure if this occurred during an update or not.

Previously downloaded molecules do not appear in the list

iPad3,1_5.1.1

I had downloaded a few molecules on fw5.1, that disappeared from the molecule list after updating to 5.1.1.
When I try to re-download the molecules, I get a popup error:

FILE ALREADY EXISTS
This molecule has already been downloaded.

Yet , again, the molecule does not appear in the list.
(possible file permissions issue?)

SDF not registered in iOS

wunch — Tue, 15 May 2012 17:34:52 +0000

Although the Molecules app can display SDF files, it is not registered in iOS. So, one cannot load an SDF file from a website in Safari (or another app) and then "Open in..." the Molecules app.

PDB files from websites work fine.

(using the iPad version of the app. Not sure if the same problem exists in the iPhone version.)

Won' show some molecules

kearnser — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 04:42:47 +0000

Molecules won't show certain simple molecules, all of a sudden. Won't show sucrose or glucose; I get a blank screen after "rendering."

odd/stray green atom

Eric the baker — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 17:20:26 +0000

I love the Molecules app. Pi Cubed is even nicer.
I have found a bug however.

A stray, unattached, inappropriate green atom Chlorine?) is appearing at times.

I am seeing 1 in the following molecules so far.
- 1 near one of the nitro groups in Octanitrocubane (Pub Chem #11762357)
- 1 near one of the nitro groups in Heptanitrocubane (Pub Chem #11732527)

There's also one that appears and disappears at some distance, and detached from the main molecule, when I pan/rotate around in the Octanitrocubane.

Missing double and triple bonds in Molecules 2.0

snoogansbc — Tue, 10 May 2011 19:00:49 +0000

Hey Brad, I am immensely impressed by the update to Molecules. I'm really looking forward to teaching organic chemistry with it now, with the additions of small molecules and PubChem support. I downloaded a few molecules that should have had double bonds (acetone, benzene) and triple bonds (benzyne, ethyne), but every bond was displayed as a single bond. I downloaded cyclohexane for comparison against benzene, and the geometries for both are definitely right, the bonds are all just displayed as single bonds.

Missing residues

selenium — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 09:21:57 +0000

Dear Brad Larson,

Just to let you know, when residues are disordered and therefore have no entries in a PDB file, a HUUUUGE bond is created between the first residue and the last residue. Does this mean you do not calculate bonds traditionally? (through distances between atoms).

Thanks,
Selenium

Problem with a custom pdb file

akane — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 15:08:32 +0000

When the length of the first line (COMPND line) of a PDB file is less than 20 letters, there are no atoms loaded. Your attension on this problem will be appreciated.
