What's New in Magpie
1.09
October 8, 2026
Magpie 1.09 brings a revised iPhone workspace, faster CUBE loading and force-field optimisation, along with corrections to surface colours, bond recognition and Apple Pencil editing: • Redesigned the iPhone workspace to make better use of the smaller screen and give the 3D view more room. Results and geometry editing controls now appear in a resizable left sidebar, with toolbar buttons to switch between files and results or hide the sidebar. • GPU acceleration is now used automatically for all molecular orbital, electrostatic potential and IGMH surfaces. • Improved CUBE file loading and reduced memory use during parsing. • Corrected colour interpolation on IGMH surfaces. • Improved force-field optimisation performance. • Improved aromatic bond recognition for nitrogen-containing rings and automatic bond detection involving hydrogen. • Fixed incorrect lighting when snapping or adding atoms with Apple Pencil. • Switching molecular orbitals now preserves your selected surface opacity.
