(I’m also not convinced of the value of the random atom colors representation as a shortcut, but maybe there is a use case I’m missing?)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers</div><div class="">Oli</div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="05FBFCDB-A8D4-4405-B49A-E0B633124517" width="575" height="470" src="cid:7BFD706A-FA1C-4A87-B556-31DF328A6052@nyp.org" class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="69354C64-15E5-4B49-95F3-BA56F323BE72" width="575" height="470" src="cid:3FA60511-18D3-42BC-960E-5855727EA48C@nyp.org" class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="CD631DAD-6872-4859-BE14-DA681EF2FD9E" width="575" height="377" src="cid:B6A64A61-E71E-4918-AF4A-DD74C5EB6A6D@nyp.org" class=""></div></body></html>
