Replot Command

Replot Command [ Display menu]

This command redraws the image in the graphics window which is currently active without recalculation. The active window may be the main graphics window (containing the structure image), the Powder or Precession diffraction patterns.

Changes in most items in the Input2 Menu can be put into effect with this command (although these dialogs all have an automatic replot check box). It can also be used after some changes in the items in the Input1 menu, such as colors and bond radii. For changes which affect atom locations and atoms involved in bonds and polyhedra, or changes in thermal ellipsoids, use the Calculate command in the File menu. Changing atomic radii does not require recalculation as long as stick bonds are not changed to interpenetration or vice-versa.

When the Auto button in the Dialog Bar - Left is checked, replot is automatic whenever you click one of the axis rotation buttons.
