In the ADD mode, picking on background adds an atom. Picking on an atom specifies the start atom for a bond. Picking on another atom completes the bond definition. A higher order bond (double/triple) can be generated by adding a bond to an existing pair of bonded atoms
In the DELETE mode, picking on an atom deletes the atom and all bonds from that atom. Picking a bond deletes a bond. In the case of a higher order bond, the order is reduced.
This module illustrates the processing of pick structures. Both labeled and unlabeled pick structures are processed.

If you wire the output geometry to a module on another machine (ie, create a socket connection) when the module was previously sending shared geometry, the downstream module will show the wrong geometry. Cause the MoleculeBuilder to recompute its data by sending a new pyramid or colormap, or by touching the radius widget. This problem arises because the MoleculeBuilder does not recompute its output when refired with no new inputs. For more information, refer to the module writer's guide section on shared memory geometry.
