Scene authoring tools: Difference between revisions

The '''Scene authoring tool''' (SAT) is used to create and edit molecular scenes.  Scenes created using the ''Scene authoring tool'' can then be inserted into [[Proteopedia]] pages. This is a reference page explaining everything. For a tutorial introduction, see [[Proteopedia:DIY:Scenes|Instructions for creating a molecular scene with Proteopedia's Scene Authoring Tools]], and watch the introductory videos, e.g. [https://youtu.be/P-LsB2U8rNM].

The ''Scene authoring tools'' are accessible when you are editing a page.  Click the tab '''edit this page''' at the top of the page where you wish to create a molecular scene. On the edit page, near the top, you'll see a big box where all the wikitext of the page lives--here you can change the text of the page.  If you scroll down some, near the bottom, you'll find in bold letters '''SAT (Scene authoring tools) [show]'''.  Click on '''show''' to expand and open the ''Scene authoring tools''. If, however, the page does not contain a Jmol window yet (not <Structure> or <StructureSection> tags), there will be access to the SAT. In this case, first edit the page to include one (using the [[Image:Structure buttons.JPG|50px]] buttons above the text-editing area), save and then edit again to see the link to the SAT. New pages have placeholder content that includes these tags, but this page for example does not.
