There are two types of set options, those which act as on/off toggles and those which can vary over a range of values. For the toggle type of option, set with the appropriate keyword enables the option and ~set keyword or unset keyword disables the option. For the value type of option, set keyword value sets the value while set keyword displays the current value.
| Set/Unset Toggle Options | |
|---|---|
| Keyword | Function |
| autocolor | Gives each newly opened model a different color; same as use new color... in the New Molecules preferences. |
| independent | If set, models rotate about their own centers; otherwise,
models rotate about the collective center. This can also be
controlled in the Rotation
section of the Viewing Tool.
