[Plugin] MoleculeImporter (1.3.3) – updated 8.10.2017
-
I tried a bunch from ACD/ChemSketch and they all failed no matter what format I saved them in...
-
I had some unpublished changes pending, can you check the 1.2.0 release? If it shows the issue, please send me a .mol file.
-
It looks like I'm on the 1.1 release, I got it from the Extension Warehouse. Should I wait for an update there, or just load the one that you have for download here?
-
I would prefer to update when I know the new version 1.2.0 in the SCF store is good (EW usually takes a week for review, so I couldn't push another revision).
-
Ok, I just installed the one in the SketchuCation plugin store and it works on my files perfectly so there's something up with the one in the Extension Warehouse.

Dear Aerilius,
thank you very much for great plugin. However I found difficulties, opening larger structures above 100 atoms. Can number of atoms indeed be the problem? Is there a way to solve it?Thanks a lot!

That can indeed be a problem: SketchUp is a line/polygon-based modeler, not a visualizer made for this purpose.
To reduce the polygon count, one can use a more simplified sphere component for the atoms.The plugin's folder contains two components for atoms.
In the file "molecule_importer.rb" you can change the line 48:
COMPONENT_ATOM = File.join(PLUGIN_ROOT, "skp", "atom_high.skp")
to
COMPONENT_ATOM = File.join(PLUGIN_ROOT, "skp", "atom_low.skp")
or just edit the skp files. -
Thanks for the reply. Nope, does not work. Sorry I was not specfic. the 'difficulties' mean, that it refuses to open the file giving message 'import failed'. Just erasing part of the structure enables opening. I am sending the .mol file attached (I changed the extension to .txt as .mol is not allowed by the web interface. Ivan

It was due to the number of atoms taking all the maximum of 3 digits. I fixed a bug where the plugin was not able to separate the number of atoms from the number of bonds. It should now work up to 999 atoms (maximum of Molfile v2000).

Can you confirm that it works for you? -
Works!!! Thank you so much
