DESCRIPTION
CrystalMaker is an award-winning Mac program for building, displaying and manipulating all kinds of crystal and molecular structures.

CrystalMaker makes it easy to load structural data and generate photo-realistic images, with the option of "out-of-the-screen" 3D images. Models can be displayed immediately in ball-and-stick, thermal ellipsoid, space-filling, wire-frame, stick and polyhedral model types. All aspects of the model can be extensively customized, with a wide range of photo-realistic or stylized "line-art" representations.

Fully-Interactive. See our online tutorials for more...

WHAT'S NEW
Version 8.3.1:
  • Improved CIF Import. This version fixes various issues arising from import of CIF files with unusual formatting. This includes a problem with reading underscore ("_") characters in undelimited data items.
  • Miscellaneous Changes. This version includes some minor changes to the graphics, including better optimization during graphics transfer. This should finally resolve a rare issue with pixel trails remaining as a structure is rotated (when using smoothed, "antialiased", lines).
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

    TOM ALBRIGHT  Tim is absolutely right-on! This is far and away the best molecular illustration program on the market.

    TIM HUGHBANKS  The 5-star rating given to this software by MacWorld is entirely justified. It looks gorgeous, it is remarkably intuitive and produces some structure effects that I have always wanted. I can download cif files from journal web sites and or use those I have from our own research and have a stunning picture in a remarkable short time.

    One MINOR complaint: when an incompatible file is used for input (e.g., a cif file on which a publisher has put in extraneous material on the front tend), the program hangs and a "force-quit" is necessary.
