VIDA and VIVANT 4.1.1 released

VIDA and VIVANT v4.1.1 have been released. This is primarily a bug fix release with a few optimizations to extensions and some requested customization hooks.

VIDA and VIVANT are available for download now. Existing licenses will continue to work. If a new license is needed, please contact your account manager or business@eyesopen.com to request a new one.

RESOURCES

NEW FEATURES

  • Ability to save and restore preferences in extensions. Many of the example extensions were updated to make use of this new capability, and now preserve settings between VIDA sessions.
  • Capability to customize molecule lookup and property calculation functions in the builder.
  • Adjustable jitter and a new coloring method for grids rendered using the “cloud” style.
  • Ability to disable OpenGL hardware rendering via Preferences, to circumvent issues with certain video drivers (most notably, the Intel HD Graphics drivers for Windows).

MAJOR BUG FIXES

  • Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when performing distance selection on proteins.
  • Addressed an issue that could cause bond visibilities to become corrupted.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause long delays entering build mode in sessions with large molecules.
  • Multi-conformer molecules with child molecules were not being displayed properly in the List Window. This has been fixed.
  • Resolved a crash that could occur during torsion measurements on Linux machines.
  • Fixed a problem with excessive memory consumption when surfaces were scribed and cropped multiple times.
  • Corrected a severe slowdown caused by an interaction of some extensions with a molecule selection dialog.
  • Fixed an issue that made check-ins of multiconformer molecules very slow.

MINOR BUG FIXES

  • Changed the way FRED View displays binding site residues in the absence of a reference ligand.
  • Lasso selection in the 2D Sketcher was leaving hydrogens in the 3D window unselected. This has been corrected.
  • An issue preventing VIDA from reading files with capitalized or mixed-case file extensions was fixed.
  • A problem that caused torsion measurements on Windows platforms to be incorrectly rendered was fixed.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented users from being able to set surface coloring defaults.
