A new empty frame is generated. Generation date, author and software by which this model was generated is now set. This information can be changed with Edit->Model Properties.
Opens a new internal or external frame (depending on if SDI or MDI is used) frame with structures read from one of the following file formats The type is determined from the files extension.
Table 1. Extensions for loadable chemistry file formats
.cml | CML files are a chemistry implementation of the the XML standard for coding information. See the CML homepage for more. |
.mol | MDL mol files. A de-facto standard file format [ DAL92 ] invented by the company Molecular Design Ldt. . The MDL people call this an SD file. |
.sdf | May contain multiple molecule in SD format, separated by a "$$$$" line. JChemPaint opens one frame for each structure it finds. |
Saves the currently active internal frame to one of the following file formats. The type is determined from the file extension that you use.
Table 2. Extensions for chemistry file formats that JChemPaint can write

This menu option can be used to generate images of the structure drawn. Four formats can be saves: GIF, BMP, TIFF and JPEG. The choice of format is determined by the extension:
Table 3. Extensions for image formats
.bmp | BMP |
.tiff | TIFF |
.tiff | TIFF |
.gif | GIF |
.png | PNG |
.svg | Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) |
.other | JPEG |
This allows export in formats used in computational chemistry. Currently export as an input for Gaussian is possible.
This quits JChemPaint.
