# Bond Config

### style

Controls which style is applied by default when creating a new bond: cylinders in solid mode, simple lines in wired mode.

    Example: <bond style="wired"/> (default)
    (defined in GAMGI_MESA_BOND_DRAW)
    Allowed values: wired, solid (optional)

### size

In solid mode, controls the size of the bond cylinders applied by default. Combining bond size with atom variancy and size, it is possible to obtain a wide range of styles to represent atomic structures. The default is to represent atoms slightly larger than bonds:

    <atom variancy="0.0" size="0.8"/><bond size="0.5"/>

An elegant style is to represent bonds with the same size as atoms:

    <atom variancy="0.0" size="0.5"/><bond size="0.5"/>

To guarantee that bond cylinders are closed by atom spheres, bond size should not be larger than atom size.

    Example: <bond size="0.5"/> (default)
    (defined in GAMGI_CHEM_BOND_SIZE)
    Allowed values: positive real (optional)

### color

Controls whether bonds have their own independent color, by default, or inherit the colors of the parent atoms.

    Example: <bond color="no"/> (default)
    Allowed values: yes, no (optional)

### red, green, blue

Set the bond color used by default, when bonds are rendered with their own independent color.

    Example: <bond red="0.0" green="0.8" blue="0.0"/> (default)
    (defined in GAMGI_MESA_BOND_R, GAMGI_MESA_BOND_G, GAMGI_MESA_BOND_B)
    Allowed values: 0.0 - 1.0 (optional, coupled)
