Inorganic and organometallic chemists — Avogadro 2.0 is for you... A new template tool lets you build octahedral, tetrahedral, and other complexes in seconds. Click to add functional groups. Avogadro also detects symmetry and displays symmetry elements #compchem #openscience #opensource
This is one of my favorite new features. I'll put up another video on building inorganic and organometallic species, but this one goes through the basics. youtu.be/RC4NZp6nnD8
