User Interface Components

Once you have JMV started, and have a file loaded, navigation is very simple. The molecule appears
in the main canvas and the controls appear below. The mouse controls to orient the molecule are:

Left button: Rotate
Middle button: Zoom (Moving the mouse down zooms in, moving it up zooms out)
Right button: Translate

On 2-button mice, the controls are:

Left button: Rotate
Left  ALT: Zoom (Moving the mouse down zooms in, moving it up zooms out)
Right button: Translate
