This plugin allows users to import molecular structure files from their local computers.

Where to find it

Parameter	Default	Description
Desalt molecules	Yes	If appropriate for the file format, removes any counterions and keeps only the largest fragment.
Loaded molecules should be invisible	No	If checked, molecules will be initially invisible. You will have to toggle visibility by hand. Useful if you plan to load many molecules at once.
Method for generating 3D coordinates	`best`	If your file lacks 3D coordinates (e.g., SMILES), choose how to generate those coordinates. Otherwise, this parameter is ignored. Try different methods only if your imported molecules have incorrect geometries.
