Dear VESTA users,

VESTA 3.4.5 is now available from
http://jp-minerals.org/vesta/

Changes in this release are as follows.
==================================
  • Fixed a bug in conversion of structure parameters when changing setting of the space group P b a n (No. 50).
  • Enabled conversion of structure parameters to keep geometry when changing space group settings, even when transformation matrix is set.
  • Updated orthorhombic space group symbols containing symmetry element "e" to comply with the latest standards, e.g., A e m 2 instead of A b m 2. Files with old symbols are still supported.
  • Fixed crash on Ubuntu Linux.
  • Enabled to run on macOS 10.14 Mojave, and dropped support for OS X 10.6-10.8. The minimum supported version is now OS X 10.9.
  • Related to the above change, hardware anti-aliasing (OpenGL sample buffers) is disabled by default on macOS to work around a regression on some platforms. To re-enable hardware anti-aliasing, open the Preferences dialog box, check on "Enable hardware anti aliasing", close the dialog box by pressing OK button and restart VESTA.
  • Enabled to edit colors from objects list on macOS version.
  • Enabled to run simulation of powder diffraction patterns using the latest RIETAN-FP.
  • Updated a file bvparm2013.cif to bvparm2016.cif, which contains a list of bond valence parameters.

Sincerely,
Koichi Momma
