 Right click (or click and hold down) on an atom to change its properties.
 Right click (or click and hold down) on an atom to select all similar elements.
 Right click (or click and hold down) on an atom or selection to add structures.
 Structure Tool: Double click on atom to replace it with a structure.
 Structure Tool: Click in empty space and connect the structure to an atom.
 Structure Tool: The Spacebar sets the last used Structure too.
 Your own structures: save the .adf file in the $SCM_STRUCTURES folder.
 Make use of 'set origin' and dummy atoms when making your own structures.
