Abstract
Creating a graphical representation of at least one of a chemical structure and a biological structure using a touch screen interface may include identifying connection location(s) of an in-progress structure and connection location(s) of a separate structure element, determine, upon receipt of a gesture input moving the structure element towards the in-progress structure, that a distance between a first connection location of the in-progress structure and a first connection location of the structure element signals an intended connection of the structure element to the in-progress structure at or about the corresponding connection locations, analyze a resultant structure formed by connection of the in-progress structure and the structure element at or about the corresponding connection locations to determine a response, and provide a visible cue, an audible cue, and/or a haptic cue corresponding to the response.
