Colorful ChemDraw Collections (ChemDraw Magic 5)

[@Tienous_08]

It’s been a while!! Plus, I see a helicene, I upvote ahah. Thank you for your tutorials.

[@guna8832]

Sir where is ring fill color option in chem draw?

[@mohangandhi4677]

thank you very much sir, may I know how to draw helicenes

Hi Dr.ChemDrawWizard, I really enjoyed your magic skills shown on the KZbin. I just have a naive question on how to keep chemdraw structures the same size! I draw a chemical and resized it. Then, I tried to modify this structure after copying it. However, the new modification seems to be in the size by default? It seems the "clean up structure" button can help somehow, but still not what I want. Could you show me a solution? Thanks.

[@PierreMx3]

You can select the molecule, go to Object then Apply document settings. That will make the molecule consistent. Then you can resize as needed. When you resize, hold Control to resize the atom labels and the bond thickness as well

[@windynest3462]

Would you please tell me how can I copy a colour filled structure and paste it to ms word....I tried ...but paste is happened without colour

[@jussilundahl224]

At ChemDraw 19 is there a way to modify hotkeys anymore? I didn't find the hotkeys file anywhere. Or is there some hotkey for the "Edit curve"?

[@PierreMx3]

Hi Jussi, Yes you can still modify the hotkeys.xml file. It is in the ChemDraw Items folder whose path you can find in File > Preferences > Directories. It requires you to go through the Program Data path, which is hidden by default. There is no hotkey to "Edit Curve"

When I try to use the extended copy paste option from chemdraw direct it just pastes a long code onto my existing chemdraw page , than the structures I've ctrl-C-ed . Help???

[@PierreMx3]

You need to enable the extended copy/paste in CD Direct, that is the little icon in the bottom left. Grey: disabled, Green: enabled.

[@98radhi]

@@PierreMx3 thank you so much 😭

Hmm, having trouble with molecules that have two of the same group (two R1 substituents). I want to only generate molecules were R1 is the same (symmetric), but ChemDraw will always mix match them (asymmetric). For example, R1 box contains Me, Et, and Ph. Desired molecules would have two R1 groups that are equivalent: Me, Me; Et, Et; and Ph, Ph. But chemdraw will give me too many structures with mixed and matched groups (e.g. Me, Et).

[@PierreMx3]

Generic structures will always give you all possible combinations of groups. The "symmetrical" subset you mention can be picked from the lot.

[@samira.8919]

Cool vid! Also, how do you tab between adjacent atoms within a molecule? Is it Shift + Tab?

[@PierreMx3]

Thanks! You need to be on version 17 or higher. Touch the molecule with the cursor, move away, and press the keyboard arrows. Check out ChemDraw Magic 4 for details

[@hkharis07]

Please share if we want to draw multiple structures with customized colours for elements like blue for N, Red for O, and S purple etc.

[@zhihaozhang9368]

I've got chemdraw pro 19 yet, but i can't find the R-Group table, sir. How can i get it?

[@PierreMx3]

Can you please reach out to informatic.support AT perkinelmer.com ?

[@whycook1674]

Hello mate, I had the same confusion as you did. Thanks for you question! I just figured it out. You can go View>Other Toolbars>Query Tools and there you go!

Do you know how to generate or construct crystal field splitting energy diagram in chemdraw

[@PierreMx3]

We'll cover that in an upcoming tutorial

[@gideonatingaakolgo1635]

Please which versions have the Ring fill colours. I use version 18.2 but i am unable to access it ....plus i have a challenge with my Chemoffice professional 18.2 where i copy a structure onto microsoft office and it converts it to uneditable picture. How do i rectify this? thank you

[@PierreMx3]

Ring fill colors is available in ChemDraw Professional 19 and above. For your challenge, I'd recommend looking for suggestions on informatics.perkinelmer.com/Support/

[@rodolforff]

Excellent video! How I do a highlight in a bond?

[@organic__chemist5074]

Sir, I am facing a problem. When I copy a structure from chemdraw to word it paste as an img which can't be edited and an error massage appear. There is a problem saving the file. Usually this is because the disk or floppy disk is too small for the file or is full, RAM memory is low, or there is a permission problem with the drive the file is being saved to. If the amount of disk space for a paging file is low, save the file to another drive. If the RAM memory is low, increase available RAM. If permissions to the drive do not allow you to save to that drive, save the file to another drive or request permissions from the administrator to save files to the drive. Note This error can also occur if the computer is running a version of antivirus software that is incompatible with the Microsoft Office or must be updated. how do I solve this problem.

[@PierreMx3]

Usually a Microsoft Update will solve the problem. I'd recommend getting the latest version, if your institution/company has access you can find it here: informatics.perkinelmer.com/sitesubscription/

[@angelescano1858]

I have ChemDraw 18.1 and i don't have Ring fill colours options, how can i get it

[@PierreMx3]

Hello Angeles, Ring Fill coloring is only available since 19.0. If your institution/company has a site license you can find it here, download the latest version: informatics.perkinelmer.com/sitesubscription/

[@xyz-vz9iy]

which version is this?

[@PierreMx3]

In this video it's version 19. We're now at version 22.2

How do I add number after bracket for units repeated in chemdraw professional 2016?

[@PierreMx3]

You can right click over the bracket, choose Bracket Usage > SRU and type anything you want

[@patch_daddy]

Hi, I really appreciate you sharing great ChemDraw tips. The new ChemDraw is really fantastic, but do you know that there is a critical error? When you use a stoichiometry table with a small number like microgram scale, the software is closed without giving any error message. It's really a shame since this is one of the most frequently used function.

[@PierreMx3]

Thank you for the kind message. The error has been reported and will be fixed in the next point release ChemDraw 19.1 in a few months

[@ChemEduChem]

Hey Dear i am using chemdraw 19 please tell me from where we can get Ring Fill colours option

[@LearnChemistry]

Click on colors option (which is on 8th position in the toolbar) and then go to ring fill colors (which is on last in color option). Thank you.

[@PierreMx3]

You can also go to View > Other Toolbars > Ring Fill Colors. It makes it more readily available

[@umataihale3484]

Thank you sir, its very useful for me. I am searching for supramolecular structure, please help me if anyone knows how to draw

[@anupsinghania7290]

this feature is available in chemdraw 18????

[@PierreMx3]

Color inside rings and safety information is only available in 19. The generic structures are available in 18

[@hsabulkhair]

Wonderful, you are great. Many thanks
