Customising Types in Latticemaker. LatticeMaker allows the addition of new types not currently defined in this version. All the information about each atom type is stored as a STR# resource in the LatticeMaker Preferences File. They are made up of 10 strings in the following format. 1). Ball & Stick or Chem-3D String eg. Ti, Si, or O. 2). MacMolecule Character. eg T,S( Limited to only one letter by MacMolecule) 3). String representing the atom radius in Angstroms. Used by MacMolecule and B&S. 4). String representing a Red value for the atom colour Used by MacMolecule. 5). String representing a Green value for the atom colour Used by MacMolecule. 6). String representing a Blue value for the atom colour Used by MacMolecule. 7). A number between 1 and 8 which represents the colour used for the Ball in B&S. 8). A number between 1 and 8 which represents the colour used for the lines in B&S. 9). A number between 0 and 100 which represents Shade 1 used by B&S. 10). A number between 0 and 100 which represents Shade 2 used by B&S. The ID of the STR# resource is the same as the atom type, so to define a new type make a new STR# resource containing the relevant information for the new type.
