As always, you have to work out what Latex is doing when it tries to float your images into free spaces, but at least you can see the code.Īlso, numbering Figures etc.
It’s best to generate these pdf from the EPS so as to stay in control of the canvas dimensions. If you compile Latex straight to pdf, your figures need to be pdf. AccelrysDraw can do that & I don’t see any need for anything else. Fortunately I’m old enough to be familiar with markup, which I quite like. There was a built-in function for duplicating an object evenly round a circle.Īlso I got fed up with wordprocessors and did the huge latex download. The obsolete but very cheap general drawing package Graphicsworks was good for that & it had a programming language useful for iterative stuff. I would say that the trouble with chemical drawing packages is the lack of a means of calculating and typing in rotations and displacements (with duplication) with respect to reference points that are not necessarily chemically significant. It’s quite nice and brings back memories of ChemText.
I moved to AccelrysDraw (free version I’m retired) for a reasonably trivial reason: there are templates for lone pairs and sundry other orbitals.
