In February, 2019, Proteopedia's mechanism is somewhat limited. The animations are jerky and will perhaps be smaller than you wish. An alternative is to make an animation of a Proteopedia scene using [[FirstGlance in Jmol]]. | In February, 2019, Proteopedia's mechanism is somewhat limited.

Making presentation-ready animations in FirstGlance in Jmol | Making presentation-ready animations in ''FirstGlance in Jmol'' is quick and easy, and the animations will rotate more smoothly and can be larger (hence clearer/sharper). | ||
If you want to animate a molecular scene that you first obtain in FirstGlance in Jmol, then you don't need the methods below. The capability is built into FirstGlance: see the snapshot in step #7 below (in Method I). The methods below are only for generating an animation in FirstGlance from a scene in Proteopedia. | If you want to animate a molecular scene that you first obtain in FirstGlance in Jmol, then you don't need the methods below.

This method will make a presentation-ready rocking or spinning animation of a fixed molecular scene. See examples linked above. It will not convert complex Jmol animations such as [[Morphs]] or those in [[Molecular Playground/HIV Protease Inhibitor]] and [[Molecular Playground/Tamiflu]] into presentation-ready animations | This method will make a presentation-ready rocking or spinning animation of a fixed molecular scene.

But here are [http://firstglance.jmol.org/videocapture.htm methods for capturing videos] that enable you to capture any activity on your screen, including morphs etc., and these methods are not difficult. | |||
Also, morphs can be made presentation-ready using [http://polyview.cchmc.org/polyview3d.html Polyview-3D]. An example is the last slide in this downloadable [http://bioinformatics.org/firstglance/fgij/ppt/polyview-3d-examples.ppt Powerpoint demonstration of Polyview-3D animations]. If you need help with a morph, please email [[Image:Contact-email.png]]. | |||
