Dear Thomas,
I would like to suggest to extend the sketcher's functionality to define motifs.
While editing a list of motifs eventually to be used as a reference set for the evolutionary library generation, I noticed the short cut `Ctrl + double left mouse click` to define one site to be e.g., either a nitrogen, or an oxygen atom currently works only if the structure in the DW's cell already carries a similar flexibility (cf. attached silent `record_1.mp4`). Instead, the whole molecule is marked. The information necessary to DW to spot potential atomic variation can be introduced by import of a .sdf with a square bracket in the corresponding line (as in the example of `compound_50.sdf`).
If not already implemented by an other command and unidentified by me, could future releases of DW provide the substructure function/atom query feature widget equally for cells about structures which still are empty (cf. second part of `record_1.mp4, and `record_2.mp4`)?
Best regards,
Norwid
