ChemDoodle Reviews
ChemDoodle 3.3.0
review by The Watcher (Dec 11, 2010)









The positive: ChemDoodle has great epsf output that creates high resolution chemical structures for publication.
The negative: Non-standard chemical drawing tools that are difficult to use. Draws hydroxyls without hydrogens (-O instead of -OH), amines without hydrogens (-N instead of -NH or NH2), and thiols without hydrogens (-S instead of -SH). The interface reminds me of Windows 3.1 where all the open windows have to stay within the parent program window. It appears to have been created by someone with no organic chemical drawing expertise. Random carbon atoms appear and disappear on the drawing window and selections are made even if your mouse cursor is no where near an atom. I spent the better part of an hour trying to change the color of part of a structure to no avail. The color manager window pops up with the selection "color" wheel all black. It is impossible to get it to display a rainbow of color choices. The worst purchase I've ever made in scientific software!
