Thanks John, I appreciate your time having a look at this. I sent you the link off-list.

    Chris,
      If you can provide the Molden file(s) that are misbehaving, that would
    be tremendously helpful. If you can post file(s) on Google Drive, Box, or
    similar, that would be ideal.

    Best regards,
