Also, if you use the current daily build you can start the atom at a particular xyz position. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Oct 23, 2012, at 11:16 AM, Elaine Meng wrote:
Dear Amit, You could select the metal ion (Ctrl-click on it) and then use Movement Mouse Mode (in menu under Tools... Movement). In that tool, you would change mode to "Move selection" if you want to use the mouse to move the metal only. To go back to moving the whole structure, change back to "Normal."
This will not necessarily make a reasonable structure... it will just leave the metal wherever you put it.
I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Computer Graphics Lab (Chimera team) and Babbitt Lab Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Dear Sir /Mam, I am new to Chimera and thus facing problems in inserting Metal in my protein. I am using the Build structure command in Chimera but I am unable to move the metal from one place to the other. Please guide me out in fixing the metal.
