ORTEP/ADP and ORTEP/RENDER

This link is designed for the automatic generation of ORTEP/ADP illustrations suitable for detailed inspection of anisotropic displacement parameters and the generation of illustrations suitable for publication.

Only a limited set of the large amount of instructions available in the full ORTEP-III program is implemented. In particular, no packing diagrams are available.

Note: Suitable ARU's can be added to the display via the CALC COORDN option. Clicking on an atom will display a list of short contacts. Click on the appropriate lines to add an ARU.


This ORTEP option also provides an easy path to the generation of raster rendered OPTEP-plots using the Raster3D package of Merritt & Bacon.

RASTER3D plots may be useful for Poster presentations.

Journals will probably prefer the classical black-and-white line drawing plots.
