CrystalMaker overview
CrystalMaker is an award-winning Mac program for building, displaying and manipulating all kinds of crystal and molecular structures.
CrystalMaker makes it easy to load structural data and generate photo-realistic images, with the option of "out-of-the-screen" 3D images. Models can be displayed immediately in ball-and-stick, thermal ellipsoid, space-filling, wire-frame, stick and polyhedral model types. All aspects of the model can be extensively customized, with a wide range of photo-realistic or stylized "line-art" representations. See our online gallery for 3D movies, rotating crystals, animations, and slideshows.
What’s new in version 11.0.1
Progress Information for Energy Calculations:
- Calculation of phonons, thermodynamic properties and density-of-states can now be cancelled, thanks to new progress bars with Cancel buttons.
Improved Show Library command:
- If CrystalViewer has not been installed, choosing the Show Library command now results in an alert with the option of a direct download or navigating to the relevant web page.
- The actual download file has been updated to remove the redundant macOS-generated "__MACOSX" file, which had confused our installation algorithm.

I'm stunned... I can't even afford the Expansion Pack to Diablo III.

Tim is absolutely right-on! This is far and away the best molecular illustration program on the market.

Version: 6.2
The 5-star rating given to this software by MacWorld is entirely justified. It looks gorgeous, it is remarkably intuitive and produces some structure effects that I have always wanted. I can download cif files from journal web sites and or use those I have from our own research and have a stunning picture in a remarkable short time.
One MINOR complaint: when an incompatible file is used for input (e.g., a cif file on which a publisher has put in extraneous material on the front tend), the program hangs and a "force-quit" is necessary.
