Happy to confirm we have not been absorbed, acquired, assimilated, or otherwise consumed. 😄 iChemLabs and ChemDoodle are still proudly independent, and we intend to remain that way.

I apologize about the frustration and agree improvements can be made. Your feedback would really mean a lot to us. Would you please join me in a quick Zoom next week to go over this and the label issue so we can improve the software?

Hi Simon. We updated the #ChemScribble beta to v1.1. This update fixes the bond z-orders for "Redone" cubane & includes a new button in the Export toolbar to place chemical data, as text, to the system clipboard. SMILES is the default format, but other formats may be chosen in Settings.

Thank you, Simon! Yes, the redone figure is correct topologically, but we need to be more careful rendering the bond z-orders. We will add a "Copy As" button so SMILES can be easily output. You may also click the ChemDoodle button (4th from the right) to insert into ChemDoodle for more functions.

Are you tired of drawing molecules with a mouse and keyboard in clunky software? We are incredibly proud to introduce #ChemScribble today! Communicate #chemistry to computers the same way you communicate it to other chemists: by simply drawing with a pen. ichemlabs.com/news/read?po...

Can you please list additional sizes you prefer (do you just want 1-5)? We will add them in.

You can choose a label font size smaller than 6 in the style sheet. Have you tried incrementals in #ChemDoodle yet? Section 4.13.8 of the user guide. It makes numbering atoms really easy. The font size shrink for incrementals is defined in the style sheet. www.ichemlabs.com/downloads/Ch...

Thank you for your feedback. You may control the font size of labels in #ChemDoodle by selecting the labels you wish to change and using the font size drop down at the top of the main toolbar. If you have more questions, please just let us know, we are here to help!

There is an "Arrange" right-click menu function to move a bond to the front or back, or just forward/backward 1 z-index based on what it is overlapping with. Section 11.5.1.1 discusses this function: www.ichemlabs.com/downloads/Ch... Is this acceptable for your use?

Can you please tell us more about what objects are you looking to place in the back? We have quick functions to do this for both shapes and bonds.
