After about one and a half year of development, we are happy to announce a new development version of BALL!

 

 

The new version offers many new features, has a whole load of bugfixes, and several optimizations. In particular, a lot of work was done "under the hood" to further improve code quality and maintainability. In addition, compiling on Windows was greatly simplified.

This first beta release still has some quirks (see the list of known bugs) and should not yet be used in production environments. Its main intent is to give a broader audience the chance to test the new version and to provide us with feedback from the community.

If you encounter any problem not yet known to us, do not hesitate to open a bug report at http://ball-trac.bioinf.uni-sb.de/newticket (you will need to create a login for this).

For an overview of the changes (like automated bond order assignment for a much broader range of molecules, support for 3D input devices (Spacenavigator) in BALLView, and greatly enhanced stereo functionality), refer to this wiki page.
