view.molecule.2d: View 2D Structure Diagrams

Description

The CDK is capable of generating 2D structure diagrams. These methods allow one to view 2D structure diagrams. Depending on the method called a Swing JFrame is displayed which allows resizing of the image or a raster image (derived from a PNG bytestream) is is returned, which can be viewed using rasterImage

Usage

view.molecule.2d(molecule, ncol = 4, cellx = 200, celly = 200)
view.image.2d(molecule, width = 200, height = 200)

Arguments

molecule

If a single molecule is to be viewed this should be a reference to a IAtomContainer object. If multiple molecules are to be viewed this should be a list of such objects. If a character is specified then it is taken as

ncol

The number of columns if a grid is desired

cellx

The width of the grid cells

celly

The height of the grid cells

width

The width of the image

height

The height of the image

Value

view.molecule.2d does not return anything. view.image.2d returns an array of the dimensions height x width x channels, from the original PNG version of the 2D depiction.

Details

For the case of view.molecule.2d, if a jobjRef is passed it should be a reference to an IAtomContainer object. In case the first argument is of class character it is assumed to be a file and is loaded by the function. This function can be used to view a single molecule or multiple molecules. If a list of molecule objects is supplied the molecules are displayed as a grid of 2D viewers. In case a file is specified, it will display a single molecule or multiple molecules depending on how many molecules are loaded.

For view.image.2d, the image can be viewed via rasterImage.

Due to event handling issues, the depiction will show on OS X, but the window will be unresponsive. The depictions will work fine on Linux and Windows.

Examples

Run this code

m <- parse.smiles('c1ccccc1C(=O)NC')
img <- view.image.2d(m, 100,100)
plot(1:10, 1:10, pch=19)
rasterImage(img, 0,8, 2,10)
