vmd-like: click two atoms to display distance #16

Closed hainm closed 5 years ago

hainm commented 8 years ago

In VMD, there is shortcut key (2) to change to click mode to display distance between two atoms.

Yeah, this would be nice. Needs support in NGL, see https://github.com/arose/ngl/issues/46.

hainm commented 8 years ago

it's quite handy in pv

should be NGL.

I recently added mouse bindings to do distance, angle, dihedral measurements. In the ts2 branch hold down alt (not shift as stated earlier) and click 2 to 4 atoms and then click on the last atom again to get a measurement. Click on all the atoms of a measurement and click the last one twice to remove it.

wanna cut a release for it so I can try in nglview? or I just use the local build.

arose commented 6 years ago

need to setup making releases for the ts2 branch, local build is faster for now

hainm commented 6 years ago

okie

hainm commented 6 years ago

@arose what's the exact command(s) to get ngl.js in ts2 branch?

hainm commented 6 years ago 

npm install
npm run ts
npm run build-min
``` ?
arose commented 6 years ago

yes, looks good

hainm commented 6 years ago

thanks, but the updated ngl.dev.js does not work as expected. Shift with left mouse click will trigger the autoview to clicked atom.

arose commented 6 years ago

alt not shift, sorry

hainm commented 6 years ago

thanks. work now. Do you want to get feed back about that now or just experimenting?

arose commented 6 years ago

sure, feedback is always welcome
