Hi Elaine,
I would like to make a movie using CHIMERA, but can only figure out how to rotate the molecule by hand and it ends up looking sloppy. Are there command line entries for smoothly rotating or rocking a molecule?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Walter, Sounds like you are looking for the "roll" command. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/1.2376/docs/UsersGuide/midas/roll.html This page lists commands especially useful for scripting movies, and links to a few example command files: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/1.2376/docs/UsersGuide/movies.html I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
