Hi! I’m trying to draw molecules for an experiment I’m designing. The default single bond length for the molecules are too short for my purposes. Does anyone know how I can extend the lengths? I know I can use the Bond Centric Manipulation tool, but I need to make all my bonds be a given length without having to manually adjust each one individually.
Please let me know if you can help! Thank you!
The easiest way to do this in Avogadro 1.2 is to go to View -> Properties -> Bond Properties and type in bond lengths you want.
In v2, there are some custom commands like scale coordinates - this seems like a good case too (e.g., change all C-C single bonds to 1.8Å).
Thank for help. I need to display the bond length on the material as in link https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Complex-MnProDtc-bond-length-and-angle-schematic-Avogadros-application_fig2_369199637
Can I make it automatically? I can do it on Avogadro 1.2 but the font does not change so it is not readable.
Could you help me please?
The easiest thing to do is to use the “Bond Properties” table, select the bond you wish to modify, and then click on the number to edit the bond length.
This works in both Avogadro 1.2 and 1.99.
