about release 3.7
Release
3.7 (SP3)
Dear DeepViewers,
thanks to
your constructive critics during the last months, we found several bugs
in the windows version 3.7. In this bug fix release (let's call it Service
Pack 3 ;-) we tried to fix the
following problems:
- The empty
character problem caused by the "Mutate" function when mutating
small to large residues should be fixed
- Infinite
file size problem with PovRay output fixed
- MegaPOV
output has been removed and replaced by PovRay 3.5
- PovRay
output (hopefully) complies with PovRay 3.5 syntax
- PovRay
label problem for SS-bonded cysteines fixed.
- New &
faster DeepView file server installed:
Server: www.swissmodel.unibas.ch Port: 27000
Known
problems with this release:
- Still
had no time to implement the new DelPhi3 format ...
Please let
us know if you find other bugs and problems with
this release ...
Cheers
Torsten
& Nicolas

Release Note 3.7
Dear Swiss-PdbViewer
users,
We are glad
to announce the availability of version 3.7, which corrects several glitches
of the version 3.7b2.
We no longer have enough time to dedicate to answer directly to all questions
that are sent to us. Therefore, please use the e-mail discussion list
that was setup by Prof. Gale Rhode (check our web site
to subscribe).
Although we will continue to read and consider all bug reports and requests
for improvements that are directly sent to us, we are unlikely to answer
those mails.
Have fun,
Nicolas, Torsten & Alexandre.
Comments about release 3.7
- There is
an updated version of the Manual on the main site.
- It is possible to use custom colors for amino acids
through the custom color menu. See an example file in your usrstuff
directoy.
- Better CCP4 Electron density map cross-platform support
(when computed on PC or linux can be read on Mac sgi)
- Rock and roll motion should be stopped using esc key.
- Fixed the add residue bug that was always adding an Ala regardless
of what was selected.
- Fixed a few bugs in the Pov-Ray scene creation.
- Better stereo red/blue rendering
- Fixed bugs in the scripting language and added support for 2D arrays.
Some of the examples present on the web site will no longer work correctly,
However, the examples provided with the distribution are functional (for
some of them, you may have to download specific files such as 1ATP or
4MDH
and place them in your 'download' directory).
The scripting language manual will be updated later directly on the Web
site.
- reorganization of the Fit menu to provide better access to a
second exhaustive 3D-fit method.
- Added a few filetypes on the Mac. Files of type 'BINA' and '????'
can be open in addition to files of type 'TEXT'. This should help
Mac users read the files returned by Swiss-Model.
Finally,
Mac users will be happy to know that I am debugging a
carbonized version that will lift the 256 colors limitation and
work on OSX. The port is complete, and I am currently testing
that the various dialogs and scripts run smoothly.
Nicolas
