Discovery Studio Visualizer

What works

All key features tested Did seem to work. Loaded molecules, rotated, various display styles (stick, space fill, protein cartoons) all OK. Sample molecules load and work well. Create molecule structure from SMILES is a useful feature.

What does not

Some minor display issues with certain molecule representations (protein beta strands) when model not undergoing rotation, when being rotated display was good. Could be specific to my PC, video card, graphics driver, not investigated further.

Workarounds

Additional Comments

Installed and ran flawlessly out of the box, did not seem to need DLL overrides. Had previously installed some other Win32 programs so (for example) VB runtime was present, may not be required. Did have some minor display issues for some structure representations, hence not quite Platinum.
