Uploading a Structure

There are two ways to upload a structure file into STNext:

• Clicking the Upload button on the My Files > Structures page
• Clicking the Upload button in the Structure Editor

Uploading a Structure on the Structures Page

Note: To successfully upload a structure, you must first open a structure-searchable file or you will be prompted to do so. To enter all structure-searchable files, open the STRUCTURE cluster.

In order for a structure to be uploaded from the Structures page, it must have been already imported via the Import Structure button or Structure Editor.

1. Click My Files, and then select Structures.
   
   
   
   
2. Click the structure file's Upload button.
   
   
   
   
3. You will then return to the session window where the structure is uploaded.
   
   

Uploading a Structure in the Structure Editor
