Being able to display EDM's in Jmol opens the door to examining EDMs effectively in a web browser, with a user interface (yet to be developed) that requires no specialized software knowledge.-->

A much easier way to view electron density maps is to use [http://firstglance.jmol.org FirstGlance in Jmol]. After you load your [[PDB ID]], go to the Tools tab and click ''Density Maps'' for instructions. You can view the map for any residues that you specify, in a single click, without any command language.

After you load your [[PDB ID]], go to the Tools tab and click ''Density Maps'' for instructions. You can view the interactive 3D map for any residues that you specify, in a single click, without any command language. Any view in FirstGlance, including electron density maps, can be saved as a static image (see examples above on this page), or as an animation ready to drop into Powerpoint. To see examples of such animations in slides, check out [http://tinyurl.com/movingmolecules tinyurl.com/movingmolecules].
