New Diamond Version 4.4.0

May 12, 2017

A minor update 4.4.0 of "Diamond", our software for crystal and molecular structure visualization, has just become available. This new version offers some new functions as well as some improvements and bug fixes:

• The following functions have been enhanced:
  • The "New Document" dialog (via "File/New..." command) has been extended with the option (radio button) "Load a structure from structure type database", which forwards you to the command "Insert From Structure Type Database..." ("Structure" menu).
  • The "Structure/Insert From Structure Type Database" command/dialog has been extended by the option "Load structure picture(s)", which enables you to load one or more ready-to-use structure pictures for the selected structure type.
• Some minor bugs could be resolved.

Diamond version 4 customers should use the online update function (menu "Help/Online update") or check the "Diamond Version 4 Update Page" for alternative update choices.
