- The display area can be returned to the default view direction (viz. looking down the crystallographic b axis) and default scale and perspective in two ways:
- Open the dial box by hitting View in the top-level menu followed by Dial box... in the resulting pull-down menu. Hit Reset in the dial box.
- Right-click in the display background, select View from the resulting menu and then hit Reset View in the next menu.
- Any crystal packing or intermolecular contact information will be retained in the resulting default view, but this can be removed by using the Reset button in the main Mercury window.
