Trajectories can be scrubbed frame by frame inside the workspace. A new Torsion Angle Tool lets you rotate dihedrals with real-time strain coloring. Projects and permissions landed. Surfaces load instantly on revisit. And that's before we get to interaction analysis, new file formats, and 30+ fixes.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Here's the tour.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Ch2>Web and XR, finally in the same room\u003C/h2>\n\n\u003Cvideo src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/trimmed_1080_fb538a2433.mov\" controls muted playsinline style=\"width:100%;\">\u003C/video>\n\n\u003Cp>This is the one we've been waiting on. Until v2.5, web users and Quest users were on parallel tracks. You could use either but you couldn't be \u003Cem>in\u003C/em> a workspace together, until now.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>In v2.5 they're the same session. Web users join the live room alongside standalone XR devices and PCVR users, see each other's position, and watch molecular changes happen in real time. A med chemist in XR can talk through a binding pocket while a comp chemist on a laptop follows along, pulls up a trajectory, and can set up the next scene. Through Spotlight mode, everyone can look at the same molecule from the same perspective instantly.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>If \u003Cem>where molecules, scientists, and agents meet\u003C/em> was going to mean anything literal, this was the feature that had to work.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Ch2>Three new scientific features\u003C/h2>\n\n\u003Ch3>Torsion Angle Tool (beta feature)\u003C/h3>\n\n\u003Cvideo src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/torsion_d8181a1515.mp4\" controls muted playsinline style=\"width:100%;\">\u003C/video>\n\n\u003Cp>Interactively rotate dihedral angles and observe the strain updating in real time. Atoms change color from green to yellow to red as they are pushed out of plane. During rotation, red indicates high strain, yellow signifies that the angles are outside standard ranges, and dark green represents acceptable angles with low to no strain. You can see strain across the whole structure or just locally around the bond you're editing. Fast-trigger prevention catches invalid rotations before they happen. Please note: There are a few known bugs with the Torsion tool, so we're rolling this feature out in beta for now.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Ch3>Trajectory Playback\u003C/h3>\n\n\u003Cvideo src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/trajectories_18c1a123ef.mp4\" controls muted playsinline style=\"width:100%;\">\u003C/video>\n\n\u003Cp>Load a molecular dynamics trajectory and scrub through it frame by frame. Playback syncs across users, so a whole team can watch the same frame at the same moment. Current cap is 2,000 frames per trajectory, which is where we landed balancing usability against Quest memory. Streaming and indexing for larger trajectories is queued up for the next release.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cvideo src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/MD_desktop_5ea586928a.mp4\" controls muted playsinline style=\"width:100%;\">\u003C/video>\n\n\u003Ch3>Interaction Analysis & Annotation\u003C/h3>\n\n\u003Cvideo src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/interactions_95df7869ca.mp4\" controls muted playsinline style=\"width:100%;\">\u003C/video>\n\n\u003Cp>Visualize and Pin chemical interactions between molecular components with hover highlighting, drop annotations inline, and generate an interaction report when you're done.

If Alice focuses on a binding pocket, it glows in her color, and everyone else in the room sees it immediately. Same principle as colored cursors in Google Docs: you always know who's paying attention to what, without anyone having to say it out loud.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Ch2>Projects, permissions, and running Nanome with a team\u003C/h2>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cimg src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/projects_8bdcd23e33.png\" alt=\"Projects and permissions interface\" style=\"width:100%;\" />\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Teams kept asking for this. v2.5 ships a full project and permission system. Workspaces live inside projects, projects have owners, and every workspace carries owner/editor/viewer roles. Public workspaces let you share a session anonymously (this is the feature behind the embedded workspace on our homepage). XR session concurrency is capped at 2 per account.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>It's the layer that makes running Nanome across a lab group, a department, or a whole company workable without writing your own access control on top.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cimg src=\"https://nanome-cms.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/workspaces_ec92a3b3a4.png\" alt=\"Workspaces interface\" style=\"width:100%;\" />\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Ch2>Surfaces that load instantly\u003C/h2>\n\n\u003Cp>Persistent surface caching is a performance win we're proud of in this release.
