Scene transitions

When transitioning between two scenes, the molecule is shown in a new orientation and with new drawing elements. The way a transition between two scenes occurs (i.e. when you click on a green link) depends on the settings in the new scene. If the zoom out effect is selected, the old scene zooms out to get all atoms into the view (whether shown or not?), then switches to the new drawing elements, and finally zooms in to the second scene. If the transition is turned off, the scene (after some loading) instantly switches to the new scene.

What you do depends on this decision tree

• Are you switching from one structure to another?
  • Yes: there is no good way of showing a transition, so it should just show the new scene without transition
  • No: there should be a smooth transition. Next question: are the scenes detailed or overall views?
    • Detailed view to overall view: zoom out, switch view
    • Detailed view to detailed view: transition directly but slowly
    • Overall view to detailed view: switch view, zoom in
    • Overall view to overall view: smooth transition without zoom

UvrB overall front view (try B3-BN) UVrB overall back view (try BN-B3) ATP detail in context of entire UvrB protein (try BN, B3 in either order) just DNA binding site (try B3) DNA binding site in context of entire UvrB protein (try B2-B3-BN or B1-B2-BN-B3) Lysozyme scene (different coordinates) (use B0) For the last one, there is only one choice: Load the new coordinates and show the new scene without transition: The following buttons can be used to transition to a scene showing just ATP. You can decide whether to press all buttons on the left in sequence, or skip some. You can also decide when to press the buttons of the right. The scene is done transitioning once you pressed the last button on the left, and the one on the right. It should look like the scene you get when you press the "abrupt scene switch" button above.

Current options in SAT I will start with the DNA view (or you can start with lysozyme). Then, I will transition to the ATP view with the 8 combos of switches (zoom, transition, reload). Captions will show which options were set. ztr killzoom 1 killmove 1 Ztr killzoom 0 killmove 1 zTr killzoom 1 killmove 1 (same as ztr in the script) ZTr killzoom 0 killmove 0 (same as Ztr in behavior) ZTR Simplified proposal: opt out of transition Keep the reload switch as is. If new coordinates are loaded (because they are new, or because reload is requested), switch directly to the new scene (no zoom no move). Remove the other two switches, and always zoom out, show new scene, zoom in when the coordinates stay the same. If author wants to skip transition, turn reload switch on. If an author wants a different option, use JmolLinks to change orientation "by hand" (is faster anyway because there are no 1 s delays built in). Demo: no reload Start here: DNA view Then transition with zoom out and zoom in: Original delays: ATP Demo: reload Start here: DNA view or here: lysozyme) Then load as fast as possible: Original delays: ATP The two lines that make this slower: delay 1.0; moveto 1.0 { -506 -641 577 176.65} 707.57 0.0 0.0 ... SAT June 2023 no reload, yes, yes no reload, no, yes no reload, yes, no no reload, no, no
