How to adjust the shapes of the atoms

Season · February 3, 2024, 2:47pm

I believe this to be a bug with Avogadro
The atoms drawn by the software were polyhedral shapes, not spheres, and I couldn’t find the interface to adjust the shapes.

Environment Information

Avogadro version:1.2.0
Operating system and version: Mac OS 15.0

Expected Behavior

sphere shapes

Actual Behavior

polyhedral shapes

Steps to Reproduce

For one, I’d suggest upgrading to 1.98.1, which uses modern rendering, including spheres and real-time shadows: https://two.avogadro.cc/

If you want to stick to 1.2.0 - you have the quality set to Low:

Go to Settings and turn up the quality (e.g., to “High”):
