Managlyph is a desktop application for 3D visualization of atomic and molecular structures.
The application supports stereoscopic rendering via red/cyan anaglyph projection and interlaced output for compatible 3D displays. Typical use cases include classroom demonstrations, self-study, and interactive exploration of molecular models.

Managlyph provides red/cyan anaglyph rendering and interlaced stereo output. These modes are intended for use with either anaglyph glasses or supported 3D monitors/projectors.
Managlyph uses the Atom Bond Object (ABO) format to store atomistic structures and related metadata. ABO datasets can include molecular geometries, bonding information, and molecular-orbital isosurfaces for visualization.
The application can generate and render atomic orbitals up to the 4f subshell, including rotation and inspection in 3D.
Managlyph can visualize elementary reaction pathways by interpolating between structures (for example: reactants, intermediates, transition states, and products). This allows stepwise inspection of geometry changes during a reaction.
