I was curious what controls the dropdown options for the renderer to image node.
For example, I see that some people have the RDKit as an option. However, my node does not have that option, but I have Indigo and Marvin as options (no Marvin license, fyi).
You need to install RDKit to have its renderer added to the list of molecule types recognized by the -Renderer to Image- node.
If you grab one of the RDKit nodes from the KNIME hub, the following one for instance :
and you place it on your workflow, KNIME will suggest to install RDKit. Once the plugin is installed, you will see the RDKit option among the Renderer options of the -Renderer to Image- node.
