Build crystal

Build crystal example

The program includes Crystal builder generating regular lattices from molecules through the spatial replication of models. It can be invoked from the Build > Crystal menu. Lattices can be generated by setting either the lattice parameters or lattice vectors. Cell copies field defines the number of model replicates in different directions. The model copies under construction can be distinguished from the proper model by a selection color. After the appropriate lattice parameters and the number of model copies were set, press the Apply button to finalize the crystal generation.
