Molecular models and contour maps [message #31639] Mon, 29 July 2002 12:09

Newbie question:

I want to use IDL for help with 3-D visualization of
electron density calculations. I want like IDL to display a ball and
stick model of a molecule, with interleaved contour maps of the density
surrounding the atoms in planes of my choosing.

1. I have not found visualization routines to generate 3-d
displays of the balls for atoms or sticks connecting them. Is
there a straightforward way to do this?
2. If I succeed in 1, is there a way to display planar contour
maps in the image?

Thanks for your help.

Rick I
