New Diamond Version 4.5.3

October 31, 2018

A minor update 4.5.3 of "Diamond", our software for crystal and molecular structure visualization, has just become available. This new version corrects several bugs:

  • The command "Expand via H-Bonds" (in the context menu of the table of H-bonds) in some cases created not all neighbouring molecules.
  • In the "Properties" pane (bottom right) the central atom itself could appear in the list of distances around a selected atom.
  • Some problems with incorrectly filled atoms, bonds, and polyhedron faces when using the special filling options "Background color" or "No Fill".
  • Several bugs in the creation/export of POV-Ray pictures.
    Diamond now casts a warning message when the POV-Ray rendering engine reports warning and/or errors (which may result in a blank picture).
    The background option in the "Global POV-Ray Settings" dialog has been improved with an added option "Picture background color".
  • Some minor bugs with color selection buttons, e.g. in Atom Design or Bond Design dialogs.

Diamond version 4 customers should use the online update function (menu "Help/Online update") or check the "Diamond Version 4 Update Page" for alternative update choices.
